The nightmare unfolded like a dark, winding path that I couldn't escape. I stood at the edge of a vast, lifeless desert, my feet sinking into the coarse, burning sand.
The sky was an endless void, devoid of stars, with thick, swirling clouds that seemed to pulsate with an ominous energy. Everything was too still. Too quiet.
Suddenly, the ground beneath me began to shift, the sand pulling me down like it had a mind of its own.
Panic surged in my chest, my legs flailing as I tried to escape, but the harder I struggled, the deeper I sank. The air grew heavier, thick with the weight of something unseen, something malevolent lurking just beyond my field of vision.
I called out for help, but no sound came. My throat felt raw, as if every scream had been stolen by the suffocating darkness around me. Fear clawed at my mind, tightening its grip until I couldn't breathe.
