Almondwater Stories

A backrooms/liminal spaces story, info is gathered from the podcase "The Traveler's Guide to the Backrooms"

"If you aren't careful and you noclip out of reality in the wrong areas, you'll end up in the Backrooms..." One minute, Aris was taking a shortcut behind the old warehouse to get home before dinner. The next, the world glitched. The pavement turned to carpet, the sky turned into flickering fluorescent lights, and the silence was replaced by a hum that never stops. Now, he's trapped in Level 0-a 600-million-square-mile maze of empty, yellow rooms. There are no exits. There are no clocks. And despite the crushing emptiness, Aris knows one thing for sure: He is not alone. In a place where physics is broken and shadows move on their own, Aris must find a way to "noclip" back to reality before the hum drives him mad-or before It catches up to him. ⚠️ WARNING: Do not look at the ceiling. Do not follow the sound of crying. If you hear something crawling nearby, it has definitely already heard you.
