Afterdeath: Prologue Full Width Image

 

You rest in absolute nothing; floating in an ocean with no end.

Above you is a moon. It's pale white, shining its light onto you. It pulls and contracts the tides across your body.

 

Where am I?

 

Shhh...

Don't interrupt...

Let's just relax here, forever. It's peaceful here. There's no pain here. Absolute serenity.

 

Then... who am I?

 

It doesn't matter. If you keep this whole "asking questions" thing up, we won't be able to relax anymore.

 

I don't want to relax; I want to go back. There's a back, right? Somewhere to go back too?

 

Shush. Let's just relax now. Back to laying-

Ah, you ruined it.

We can't relax now, can we? The water isn't calm now. Waves have formed and are protruding from the ocean.

 

Then tell me. Where are we going back too?

 

The real world.
