The route wound its way through a ravine, ever contracting. An oppressive stillness settled upon the air, broken only by the distant echoes of a world long gone. The gleam of day struggled to penetrate the thickening canopy above, casting long figures that danced like phantoms on the forest floor. Every stride was a struggle, as if the very ground itself was pushing back. The air grew heavy, laden with the scent of death.

• An overwhelming fear my mind
• This place

Every glimpse was distorted, making it impossible to tell reality from illusion. Was I being chased something, or were we both lost?

• The maze whispered secrets in the rustling of my clothes
• {With each turn, I felt uncertain|I was trapped in a vortex of glass and shadows|Time itself lost all meaning
• Did I glimpse a shadowy figure?
