It wasn't quite the ideal weather to be in, for anybody. Yet, he continued through, being motivated by the sheer tiny percent chance he had. Even if there was a chance, was all he wanted. He continued, wading through the 2-foot deep waters covering the ground. It seemed endless, this vast ocean, if you could even call it an ocean. He disliked the thought that he was wrong, and possibly miscalculated. He pushed that thought aside as much as possible, yet it kept coming back. He pulled a bottle of pills out of his pocket, shakily, opening the bottle and trying to avoid spilling it all. He took a single pill and put it in his mouth. Swallowing dryly, and quickly putting the lid back onto the bottle, he continued. He continued to travel and stumble through this seemingly endless reality of water that was very shallow.

Suddenly, it all crumbled, falling out of place.
It changed.
Before him lay a beautiful sight, a tall castle-like structure of interstellar gasses and dust. It stretched miles into the sky, yet, it was all impossible, as he was now in space, drifting endless into the most dangerous place in the universe: the universe itself.

Suddenly, it all faded.
Nothing. Complete darkness. No senses.

As he had thought. He was right, after all.
