I arrived at this off-white endless space God knows when, and I've wandered this place for what feels like even longer. However, I know that this isn't the only place I've been before. The fragments I'm left with don't make sense for a place like this. Don't get me wrong, a place like this isn't as bad as it sounds, but my life that once was seemed better.

These are the things I remember.

I've named this place the Calm. Now just because things are calm doesn't mean things are good. You see the Calm is always cold, not a shivering cold but a numbing cold. A cold you didn't mind, but still wished you had a coat. The Calm is always quiet, not a scary quiet but a calming quiet. You could still hear yourself think, but not your heart beat.
