You wake up; your face, against the ground. Your head hurts a bit, most likely resulting from the fall... You get up, slowly recovering the pain. Your eyes begin to drip. Not with blood, but the very substance of your being. Your eyes, now pure black voids, circling around in your skull. You feel pain. The pain hurts, but at the same time feels different. You feel different.

Behind you lies a door. Where does it take you? You attempt to find out. There is no handle. You punch the door, causing it to move ever so slightly. You continuously punch it, making it open after enough time. Before even looking, you step outside. As you open your eyes and pay attention to the world, you get hit by beauty; struck by the heart of this world. A colourful place, thriving with creatures everywhere.

Bright blue lakes, and bright green trees. After looking around for a while, something catches your eye. It's you; stalking you from the undergrowth of the green vegetation. Suddenly, you fall to your knees. The same feeling of pain strikes you, right in the center of your soul. Your eyes begin to leak the same essence of your soul. You close your eyes, hoping that the pain would flee. As you open them once more, everything that you were feeling during that moment goes away.

Your pain, your memories... yourself. You lose control. Your body, a vessel for something else. Suddenly, your body acts against your will. You find yourself in the same paradise as before, but now grayscale. Your eyes begin to catch yourself again. You notice that you are the only thing that has colour. A galactic texture, glowing throughout the dark paradise. Against your will, you begin to run up to yourself. As you run, you lift up your fist. You run up and strike yourself right in the skull.

CRACK

Your vision fades away, along with yourself. You are no more. You ended yourself. You are the void, come to consume your soul.
