Cold and dark, the two most fitting words for the place I'm in.
The room(?) was so dark I could not see my hand when it is a mere inch away from my face. And the cold was as severe as its darkness.
This coldness pervaded through the skin and latches onto bones. I swear I could feel my very marrow freezing in this place.
Now, where is here, and how am I alive? I remember being shot twice and then bleeding out, is this my last thoughts? A great fucking purgatory dedicated to myself?
If so, then I'll be fully gone in... some amount of time.

The cold is less pervasive though if this is due to simply ignorring it or adapting to it, I do not know. In contrast to the lessoning cold, the darkness got even more so, Which is surprising for where it was before.
I've kept to keeping myself sane though 'talking' to myself. Apparently there is also no sound in addition to no light. Or maybe my eyes and ears, and nose, and fucking everything have turned off.
Oh god I can't feel anything. Why can't I feel anything? Please let this be a terrible terrible dream.

Please let this end.

To the deepest recess of my mind did I go. Thoughts and feelings and traumas I had never known. Now, with only my thoughts and soundless voices for company, I find solace in a sense returning.
The sense of sight, and it is returned with vigor as blinding light pours into my eyes. once the light is not as blinding, do I 'open' my eyes, and before stance the most magnificent structure I've ever seen.
A great temple which reaches tens of miles into the sky with a great statue to some old god.
'Looking' around, I notice a few things. First; there are no other things besides me here, two; the structure seems to be modelled after the Parthenon in Athens, and C; I have no body.
All of these are fascinating as they are horrifying. But, but, seeing as I have died; me not having a body does make some amount of sense. What doesn't make sense is the lack of other souls. The Greek-ish temple look is just cool.
Seeing as there nothing else that really strikes my fancy besides the temple, I head on into it, passing by the great marble pillars which jut hundreds of meters into the air.
