I want to cry. That was a general feeling, but still awful none the less. But, pros to my emotional was the massive, completely extra and beautiful housing the Black Swan provided. Because of this, I was currently lounging in the darkness of night admiring the lights dancing beneath water of pool as I floated on my back in the shallows. The beauty was unlike anything I had seen since I had entered The Lost Cities. Apparently, no one had thought to add a pool to their sprawling estates. Regrettable

My mind was lost in a swirl of panic. I couldn't pinpoint one exact reason why my stress was so acute. Maybe it was the seventy-two hours spent alone in my massive bedroom, or maybe it was the familiarity of The Forbidden Cities. It was unsettling how easy I could pretend that The Lost Cities were nothing but a distant memory as I integrated perfectly into my role as a normal student. 

Sometimes, in the quiet moments between tasks and responsibilities, my mind wanders into the labyrinth of thoughts. It's a maze where worries lurk in the shadows, where uncertainties whisper their unsettling tales.

I find myself lost in contemplation, grappling with the future that seems both distant and alarmingly close. It's a future where survival isn't just about physical endurance but also navigating the complexities of life. Questions swirl relentlessly: Will I be able to secure stability? Will my efforts bear fruit in a world that seems increasingly unpredictable?

Survival isn't merely about making it through the day; it's about thriving in a landscape that can shift unexpectedly. The pressures mount like waves crashing upon the shore, each one demanding a response, a decision that carries weight beyond the present moment.

In these introspective journeys, I confront the stark realities of existence. The need for sustenance goes beyond the tangible; it extends into the realms of emotional resilience and mental fortitude. How do I fortify myself against the storms brewing on the horizon? How do I cultivate the resilience to weather setbacks and disappointments?

Yet amidst the anxieties and uncertainties, there's a glimmer of hope—a belief that within the depths of my thoughts lies the power to shape my destiny. It's a reminder that survival isn't merely reactive but also proactive—a journey of adaptation, growth, and relentless determination.

So, I navigate this maze of thoughts, weaving through doubts and fears, seeking clarity amidst the fog of uncertainty. And perhaps, in this introspective quest, I'll find not just answers but also the strength to face the future with courage and resilience, knowing that survival is not merely a destination but a continuous evolution of the self.

And now, my feet illuminated by blue lights water rippling the image I could only hope me and all of my friends would make it out of this whole thing alive.
