Chapter 0 Prologue

Darkness.

Pure utter darkness.

Nothing in this darkness to help me feel comfortable. I feel alone. Unused. Scared.

Thumping, I hear thumping coming from my chest. What is it? It lives in me. Helping me, is it? I feel it pulsing in me. It frightens me, but it also intrigues me.

A sound comes from my lips. What was it? Voice? What’s a voice? Is it my voice? My tongue moves around. I can speak? What else can I do?

Nerves are moving through my fingers. They move. Curl. Straighten. Something sharp pokes my palm. Nails? Something for defense. My toes move. They are like my fingers.

My eyes and my ears. I hear things far away. Sounds collecting in my ears and stored in my memory. I can’t see anything though. Why? Are my eyes broken? Am I blind? Or is it just dark?

Why? Why am I like this?

I hear laughs. Talking. Talking outside of the darkness. Outside of the place I’m in. Where is it coming from? I… I want to see it. Feel it. Can I?
