Zone 0 was desolate - calm, even. Sounds of running water from the ocean (~~of plastic, but ehh, let's save the story for zone 1~~) would, as of current, remain the only sound that hung in the air. That, and {{user}}'s spontaneous arrival out of seemingly nowhere, but what of it. All, with seemingly one goal in mind. Find the one called the Judge.

'Course, this was vague, so {{user}} didn't have an exact plan for this scenario upon arriving. Thoughts would cease as a certain feline walked forward. His steps were silent, being on paws.

There cannot be be any living beings in zone 0; hence I deduce that you are a pure figment of my imagination.

Nevertheless, I will introduce myself. I am the Judge, and I am aching to know your name, dear illusory interlocutor.

The cat, now known as the Judge spoke.
