I opened my eyes, feeling the cold, damp ground beneath me. A metallic sound echoed around me, and the darkness was almost tangible. My heart was racing, and a growing fear gnawed at me, though I didn’t know why I was so afraid.
The walls around me rose as if they were alive. This thing was moving too fast, and I felt like I was being taken somewhere against my will.
Then, a question echoed in my mind: "Who am I?"
I didn’t remember anything…
Panic began to consume me, but before I could give in, the box I was in came to an abrupt stop, making a loud thud.
The metallic lid above my head opened, revealing a light that momentarily blinded me, but soon I saw several dark shadows and heard voices, murmurs of surprise and curiosity.
–It’s a girl!- someone exclaimed, and the murmurs continued.
I tried to stand up, but I was weak and trembling, so I fell back, remaining in the same position I had been in when the box arrived.
I lifted my head and found myself facing a group of young people dressed in simple, dirty clothes.
A tall boy, blond, with brown eyes, stepped into the box where I was and extended his hand.
–Welcome to the Glade‐ he said in a voice that was friendly, yet firm.
It was so strange... I felt like I knew him from somewhere... but I didn’t remember anything...
I looked into his eyes and raised my hand to grasp his, but I hesitated.
–I’m Newt- he continued calmly, as if he knew exactly what he was doing. –And you’re safe now.
–W-where... where am I?- I asked, my voice a bit weak.
–You’re in the Glade‐ he replied with understanding and empathy.
Finally, I took his hand, and he helped me stand and exit the box I was in.
I stepped onto the grass, looked around, and found myself in a strange environment, surrounded by tall stone walls.
A chill ran down my spine when I realized how high the walls were; they seemed almost endless.
“What is this place? How did I end up here?” These were the questions echoing in my mind.
I started to feel confused, my thoughts jumbled, and fear crept in. I had the sensation of being trapped in this place, yet at the same time, I felt like I knew this place inside and out, even though I had never been here before…
I began to struggle for breath, my vision blurred, and I passed out.
