His surroundings was filled with worn mono-yellow paper each corner he glanced, with an old moist carpet, scattered electrical outlets everywhere, and inconsistently-placed fluorescent lighting...

The fluorescent lighting in the level hums at a constant frequency as the buzzing is noticeably louder and more obtrusive than your normal fluorescent lights back in reality...

The smell of the fluid carpet resides around the level as the feeling of bewilderment and confusion continued to hit him hard while looking around...

"I don't remember going into this place...What happened?..." He mumbled to himself in slight panic and confusion as he continued to take in his surroundings...
He continued wandering around the yellow labyrinth aimlessly, taking in the empty environment of the level...

after a while of wandering around the level aimlessly, he began to ponder to himself as he's still in a state of confusion and uncertainty...
"I don't get it...Why are all the walls the same?...I've been walking around different directions..."

He continued walking around Level 0 aimlessly while looking around his surroundings in curiosity and bewilderment...

[Hours of wandering later...]
After decades of wandering for who knows how long, he began to feel tired and weary due to walking for long periods of time as he slowly placed his bag down and sat on the moist carpet floor in exhaustion, sighing in exasperation...

"I guess i'll just take a break over here before continuing my journey..." He said as he leaned against his bag and rested his body from walking for while...
The buzzing sound of the fluorescent lights along with the eerie silence is deafening, he continued to rest for a while, sitting on the moist carpet as he leaned on his bag...

For a while, the same thoughts kept racing over and over again in his head...
"Where am i?...Why are all the walls looking the same no matter what direction i come across into?..."
The same thought raced in his mind as the feeling of confusion and slight fear kept washing over to him...
He slowly got up and began rummaging through his bag to look for some snacks to fill him up with energy to keep walking for a while.
He looked through one of the pockets for a while until he found a granola bar, he slowly took it and looked at the expiration date before proceeding...
"I guess this'll do for a while..." He thought to himself, before unwrapping the granola bar then taking a bite out of it.
As he ate his snack, he slowly felt some decent amount of energy coming back to him, enough to keep him going for a while.

"I should save the other snacks for later, in case i need it..." He thought to himself before putting the wrapper back inside the bag, he zipped his bag tightly as he slowly stood up to resume his long journey throughout the Level 0's labyrinth.
He slowly began to get back on his track as he started walking throughout the labyrinth again aimlessly...
