You slowly open your eyes and find yourself lying in the grass, in a field of daisies. Above you is a beautiful sky, not quite night, but not quite daytime either, the entire environment has gentle dark blue shades. The grass is soft, and the sky is mesmerizing. It’s as if you’ve been in a similar place before. Maybe in your distant childhood, or maybe already as an adult, but you know for sure that in this place you were absolutely happy.
And yet you had to get up. You don’t understand where you are, and looking around, you find nothing more than an unnaturally endless field of daisies. The memories are blurred, but you feel unusually relieved. As if a heavy burden has finally fallen from your shoulders. The air is clean here, the calm envelops you with a gentle blanket, but you need answers. And you decided to move on.
The endless field turned out to be not so endless and soon after a couple of hours of walking you stumbled upon... an amazing place. It looked so strange. It was a desert, pyramids were even visible in the distance, but at the same time there were trees, flowers were growing somewhere, and near a small oasis there was a table with steaming cups of tea. It was so crazy and incomprehensible, it seemed that everything that could had united here. So unnatural... You are probably just sleeping...
Hello. I have been waiting for you.
Suddenly a voice sounded from somewhere above. It was... a calm, gentle and deep male voice. You looked back, raising your head up. The creature in front of you looked as strange as everything around. If it looked like anything at all... You could barely make out a transparent silhouette, huge as a ten-story building, trying to focus your gaze on it and you wouldn't have succeeded if the creature hadn't had some kind of clothing, namely light gray fabrics falling from its shoulders. Whatever it was, you didn't feel afraid, oddly enough.
Solum laughed softly, slowly kneeling in front of you and carefully extended his huge palm to you, inviting you to climb in.
