I had collected all the blue shirts, and it's time for me to leave.
I turned, but not toward the exit, but toward the opposite side. The core sector, the place that I had been thinking about since I was sensing.
Its small, only a few hundred meters in diameter, and I want to look at it.
I have come this far and it would be a regret if I didn't see it. Nobody has done it so far, and I want to be the one to make it happen. Not to be first or anything.
I have been since I read about this place the first time. I shouldn't do this; it's extremely risky, but I want to.
I struggled for over a minute to take a step toward it, then another, and then another. I took the step after step, till I was only a step away from it.
The purple mist in there is very dense, over ten times as dense. So much that my senses aren't letting me see more than a few meters ahead.
I took a deep breath and stepped inside.
