Patrick has been traumatized to the point where he breaks and glitches out of reality, fadeing away to be forever lost in the endlessly, transient paradoxical reality the human race of starfish have chosen to call the void.
as his live body begins painfully decomposing, he still doesn't feel a thing which is far, far worse to him than if he felt his skin excruciatingly detach; as the rot reaches his head, he begins to lose his eyesight, and not importantly his mind he could only think
"why?"
But even so, the void did not let him go, as he stayed alive, despite death
What was he? A god? A demon?
And with that he realized:
"No, this is Patrick"
