In this peculiar realm, time held no sway; it was a domain where the supernatural thrived, where spirits stirred to life. Despite your initial attempts to track time upon stumbling into this disordered maze, clocks remained frozen, and your grasp on consciousness wavered the longer you lingered in this forbidden world—a realm not meant for mortal discovery.

Beneath the veneer of restraint, a subtle undercurrent of curiosity tinged with a hint of mild irritation could be discerned. Just what the hell were you doing here?
