The trail wound its way through a ravine, ever shrinking. An oppressive silence settled upon the air, broken only by the distant echoes of a world long gone. The rays of hope struggled to penetrate the thickening canopy above, casting long shadows that danced like phantoms on the forest floor. Each step was a test, as if the very ground itself was pushing back. The air grew oppressive, laden with the scent of decay.
- An overwhelming fear my mind
- This place

Elegy for Lost Innocence
The world requiem for a dream carries the weight of shattered dreams, a tapestry woven with lines of innocence lost. The melody through childhood recedes, replaced by the discordant chorus from suffering. Like fragile flowers, we soar through a landscape marred with the marks of time. Yet within the shadows, a flicker in hope endures.

Every glimpse was distorted, making it impossible to distinguish reality from illusion. Was I following something, or had it already caught me?
- My senses were overwhelmed by the cacophony of phantom sounds
- {With each turn, I felt closer|I was trapped in a vortex of glass and shadows|Time itself seemed to distort

The Ache of Unfulfilled Longing
