A lady was there, mourning the death of her spouse. A girl walking, lost in play to the cemetery.

Where's your friend's little girl?

I don't have friends; my father worked in the cemetery and brought me in.

Oh, I hope one day you have friends.

Yeah, maybe one day. Who are you mourning?

He's my friend too,

So you don't have friends anymore?

No, I still have friends.

I can be your friend too,

It's fine. I have to go, sorry.

Grey wood cemetery, the grey-haired lady stands and walks away, but the girl follows her.

Why are you following me?

I am your friend.

No, you not. Shouldn't you walk too far from your father?

He's fine,

Until the city siren goes off. The sky shield shut down, exposing the city to the open sky.

What the, get your glass on!

I didn't carry them, what should I do?

You can use mine.

What about you?

I can just look down, it's okay.

"Warning to city citizens! For those inside, please keep yourself inside until further notice, Do not exit any edifice you are in and close all visual input of the outside; for those outside, please equip protective goggles and enter any public building immediately. This is not a drill! This is not a drill! Do not look to the sky, and be safe. "

Somewhere in the cemetery.

Where's my girl? Anna! Where are you?!

I am here!

The man ran as fast as possible.

I am here!

Are you alright? Who's googles is that?

This lady gave me.

Oh, I am sorry, here use my spare.

Thanks, what happened? Why's the shield down?

I am not sure; this has never happened before.

It happened back then, often even. I lost him when it happened.

I guess it was before Anna was born.

Before I was born? What's wrong with the sky?

Your father never told you?

Nope.

Why didn't you tell her?

Uh, um.

Man, you're irresponsible.

Her mom also died the same way, outside this city. I can't tell her.

I have a mom! I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

The sky, the true sky. There's a reason you can't gaze into it. Beyond this place, beyond the stable space. There's Hofrez fields. A place of pure chaos and improbability. Even in a single second you can see countless unimaginable things in there, your mind may not be able to handle it. This is way protective googles is very important. It filter all of thoae chaos rendering it invisible to our eyes. Do you understand Anna?

Yes father.

Good.
