[@mynickisnick8270]

@Silvio Berlusconi Because we have less problems to worry about. The people in the past, like you said, worried about their life and what or if they'd eat tomorrow, but now such things aren't as common. We are educated and know more about the world around us and how terrifying it can be because of the internet. Maybe later generations will be even more depressed, but we'll have to wait a few decades.

[@zanegaukrodger613]

problems are the point of life, overcoming them

[@TheTSense]

Because Knowlege itself is the Scar on the Mind. To be aware is to be damned. Back in the good old days unwanted babys would just be left to the pigs and adults touched children. Outsiders were not just bullied, but just murderd and thrown into the river. If it didn't happen behind closed doors it was just ignored and normalized. And that made it, to those people, non-existent. This is why it feels like the world gets worst. We acknowledge and call out, which makes it real. We start to truly prevent while in their eyes we are the sole reason. What's the difference between a problem not existing and looking away? Until you look at it they are the same. We looked. And we paid the price. But to find true healing and real progress we must be better than those who came before. It ruined our Lifes and we would do it again. Because it, simply put, is the only correct answer. Let them rot, those who walked past the hand reaching up to them. Let them laugh about us. Let them think they are better. Their opinion holds no meaning. Their words are as empty as their souls. And when harvest comes, we will still be here and they will not.

[@twentytwo138]

Getting ads is like someone entering your room while having sex. Please install adblock, life is too short to constantly sacrifice your own small pleasure for nothing. When you die, nobody will remember and appreciate how many beautiful moments you spoiled for yourself because you didn't install adblock. Nobody will give you a pat on the back. And when you're old, you will only wish to go back in time, so you could hear that beautiful music again and daydream about wonderful places. Spending only 1 minute a day on stupid ads is 365 minutes a year, or 6 hours a year. In just 12 years that's 72 hours (3 days). In 50 years you lose 2 weeks. Now imagine on your death bed, if you could trade that time for listening to music uninterrupted, and contemplate about life just a little longer.

I'm one of those people. I'm an artist who dabs in "dark" themes with her artwork and at times can be a turnoff when I meet new people who ask about the work I do. Often, I'll be judged poorly right off the bat, but those who get to know me, or know me before they see my work, will quickly find out I'm naturally very positive and cheerful, more often than not you will find me with a smile on my face, even when bad things happen around me. Although I love color and other styles of artwork, there is something about works of art that pull out emotions like, loneliness, anger, sadness, and fear. It's hard to explain, but you are right, I think it's because we can find the hidden beauty of all emotions, even those that are deemed "bad" despite us all being human and having them.

[@JoeKerrAnomaly]

Walking through empty cities, neighborhoods, markets, airports....you're the only human you know of that's alive and around. Spent so long in self-imposed solidarity that now you wish you could see people again. You now spent time wishing to trade all of that to see another, even the glimpse of another living person. It's been a decade now since you woken up one day to being the only person in the known world. It wasn't until 5 months into the true lonely life that you'd even love to see the people you hid from. Walking through streets, along the long lines of cars, many with full tanks yet. Sleeping in a new bed every night. Eating the food the vanished left behind before it's rotted and gone too. What you cannot finish, you feed the few birds and insects and animal life left. It haunts you that even they were few in number and decreasing. Electricity lasted for a few months, until you had to rely on vehicles, batteries, solar panels, hand crank devices and generators for any electricity, but it didn't take long for the need and interest in power to wane. All radio is silent. Nothing on tv anywhere. No internet. The most you've done is go around, booting people's computers to see if they have music, videos, anything to remind you of the people gone. 10 months into this new, lonely world, after learning how to grow a vegetable garden you ditched your rifle and pistol, realizing you won't need them. There's no one to be a threat to you and even the carnivorous animals have dwindled in numbers. Walking, biking, driving from city to city. Beginning to see the fur and bones of animals. You try to feed any you encounter, or at least leave food out for them, hoping to retain any life you possibly can. Your siblings to picked on you enough to give you insecurities, you long for them. Your parents whom you also had a rocky relationship with. The former friends that had become enemies. The enemies themselves you wish you could see again. This new world you're in has also stripped you of all of your insecurities and little things you felt were life altering and bad. It has faded away a lot of issues you had. Unfortunately, the good is beginning to fade 2.3 years into this life. Hope is fading like the refrigerators full of dried, dusty mold, the empty houses, the empty cars, the empty amusement parks, the beaches, the malls, everywhere. All empty, dried up, dusty. You realize how much you've changed. Having climbed to the top of a ferris wheel to eat. You look at your bag, realizing it's a basic backpack. No longer designer bags you used to hold in higher importance than your life. Your shoes are basic running shoes, no longer designer shoes that you used to in debt to get. Clothes are plain, a bit practical. The expensive, designer, "high class" clothes you filled your life with...even wearing for less than a season and moved onto more new clothes as the old sit in your closet, all of those don't matter to you anymore. Nothing matters compared to the hope of seeing even just one more person. None of it matters as much as your deep internal struggles of missing everyone, the very people you isolated your from. Even now, 3 years into the desolate world, you cannot admit to yourself that you miss people. You can admit that so much is trivial compared to having people around. You just can't yet admit that you miss them. Having almost unlimited resources, you've learned how to do many things. Operating machinery. Manual transmission. Lift heavy things with a seesaw motion of weight on one end lifting the other so you can place blocks under it until the heavy object is high above the ground and supported. It took you a few days and some callouses but you did it. Even 4 years of this, you can still go to any car and either drive it until gas runs out or you siphon the gas out. You used to like that one BMW car you had 2 years ago but when it finally hit you that you have ALL of the options, you no longer have a preference, only that it can drive. You still jog and run. Your device, your multiple microsd cards full of music, audiobooks, lectors, people's home videos, anything to listen and relive other people's moments and lives. It's the closest you'll ever had to having someone with you again. As you run alongside rivers and streams and roads and all kinds of scenery spots, it also finally hit you that the air, the skies, the water, all so clear. It's been like that for a long time, you just haven't noticed until now. 5.5 years later. At the end of this day, you'll swim in the river you ran beside, then take a bath when you find a place you want to sleep in. You're surprised there's still plenty of fish. You still filter your water, even though you have it in the back of your mind that it's not as necessary anymore. You don't take a risk though. Nighttime, you often find the tallest building in whatever city or town you're in to lay on the rood and stargaze. Night skies are so clear, no light pollution that even within year 1, the night sky never looked so vivid and to this day, it's so clear. Sometimes you even sleep on the roof. 6.5 years later, cooking a fish over a campfire, you listen to music from your teens that no longer makes you cringe as you can feel the joy from them again without any fear of ridicule or guilt or anything from others if they knew you still liked it. Adding lemon pepper to the salmon you caught while you sing along to the pop music playing from a stereo powered by the current car you're driving. Appreciating everything as you go. Even after every song, every movie, every person's home video, you thank them for it. Thank them for leaving a piece of the human spirit for you to partake and enjoy. Sometimes you pretend they're made for you, sent from a friend long, long ways away. There are many areas you avoid. Even though it's been 8 years since, some places such as nuclear facilities for power and another products no longer have anyone to maintain them so every nuclear facility has degraded and blown up and leaves telling signs that it's not safe in that particular area. Nothing but scars upon the purer, cleaner Earth. 9 years into the solitary world, the foliage overtaking almost everywhere. So much that buildings grown over look like green hills and mountains. Sometimes it's hard to drive around as some tree roots damage the paved roads. You prefer trucks and SUVs for the last few years. You prefer homesteads and farm lots than cities and towns, but you'll sleep where it's convenient. For the last few years, you start off your mornings honking car horns and shooting off guns, hoping that if there's a chance someone might be alive and near to hear the noise. Nighttime you set off fireworks and sometimes have big bonfires. Not a day goes by where you don't have something playing. A movie, music, lectors, audiobooks on repeat. 9 years and as you look through people's computers and phones you still get surprised at what you find, adding to your collection. Greeting them as if they're a person, saying that you're pleased to have them. 10 years into the big empty world, you've been almost everywhere in the North American continent. Hope is almost dry and turned to dust. Adding the last of the fuel canisters onto a boat as you are about to set towards across the ocean, towards the next continent. Looking around, actually becoming emotional, leaving like you're something behind, like you're leaving friends behind. You don't know why you cry but you don't stop yourself. Beginning of summer hot days, you start the engine, you turn on your stereo, playing somber music. You feel like saying sorry. Why? And to whom do you think it towards? You don't care, you don't stop yourself from feeling anything, you let it happen and permeate. You keep yourself alive and human and full of emotion and clinging onto hope. Pulling the lever, making the boat drive off away from mainland as you keep your eyes on it. Breathing hard, allowing yourself to let go, feel scared again and to accept a new adventure elsewhere. Even as the mainland has vanished from sight, you keep looking for a few more moments before looking ahead. Ahead towards another new life, another new world. Maybe this time I'll find someone. I hope...

Perfect doesn't have to be flawless. Someone out there has flaws, but she'll be perfect for me in the end. However, that is going to take time. And a human life only lives for so long. It'll take too long to find the one for me. Which is why I guess I'll die alone, and that's perfectly fine. If that's the way the fate has it. Then I'll accept my fate. I'm just a human.

[@metitfour131]

It's funny that the title is "Songs for an empty world;" as a kid, I believed (and still do, to an extent), that after death, your brain essentially puts your consciousness into an "aftercare" state due to the traumas of both life and death, and over time (if you aren't already), you'll become progressively more lucid with your initial blank slate afterlife. I'm not talking completely white, but your perception of the world, just empty; there's nobody else but you, and your own thoughts. I used to make playlists with this type of music because when I die, I wanted to populate my world with this somber, Silent-Hill like ambiance. It's nice to hear stuff like this again. Maybe the universe is giving me a sign. Maybe not. Who knows.

[@metitfour131]

@Based G-man Better than this one, honestly. Also, I didn't say void. This is what I said: "I'm not talking completely white, but your perception of the world, just empty; there's nobody else but you, and your own thoughts." So the world as I know it currently, just me and myself. Eventually, it'd end up like a lucid dream, where you can pretty much do anything, so I'd be able to populate it once I knew how. I used to have (and still do) lucid/vivid dreams a lot and it takes me to better places than the ones that exist on Earth. My playlists weren't necessarily all bleak. There were a lot of nice ambient and tranquil tracks on there, and some 90s jungle EDM. I wish I still had the playlist so I could link you. I'd like to think that my version of the afterlife is better than Heaven or Hell, where in one you praise the Lord all day and in the other, you praise Satan with your pained screams.

Yesterday I decided to stop, I'm gradually minimizing alcohol every day, dropped off from social media for a while (nobody even reaches out to me, people left me, and those who care find a way to call or text me without social media. also it hurts me more and wastes my time scrolling around), and started meditation again.

Listening to this mix transports me back to that period when COVID first crept into our lives. In a weird, morbid way I feel somewhat nostalgic for that time in early 2020. Everything was changing. No one knew what to expect. It was the most "unknown" that most of us have faced in our entire lives; for a brief time our regular lives were uprooted and we were faced with the howling existential abyss and we didn't know how to react. For just a small, exhilarating moment in time the streets were empty, people stopped and looked around, and the hum of humanity died down. In a way, I miss it.

The wind blows behind him, moving his long cloak. it's completely silent. The leftovers from a cilivization that disappeared without expectation. Yet everything seems to be normal. It's this silence that is making him shiver. So many people used to live here, and now...not a single soul. The massive towers of glass and steel are slowly decaying, the vegetation was conquering this place. He stopped and looked around. He started to hear noices, loud noices, people talking, he even heard his name. He looked everywhere, but, there was nobody. Was he becoming insane? The sounds were becoming louder. He fell on his knees. His arms tried to reach for something, his lips were moving, trying to say a word, a name, but he was unable to speak. unable to move. A sudden weight started to push him down, even more sounds started to reach his ears, it was a pure chaos. He wasn't sure what was happening. What terrifying fade had got to the people here, he thought. His strongest desire was to leave, to leave this crooked place, to leave this empty world. Suddenly he heard a voice, a voice calling his name. Something was different. The voice was kind, it was telling him not to give up, his journey hasn't even started. This is just that, what remained from the people here. This was just something new, but at the same time something known to him. He knew those sounds, he was able to recognize them. He has already been here before. Then it got him. With all his force he was albe to stand, but still in wiggling feet. The sounds were fading. it was silent again. The emptiness of this world had dragged him down for a minute. He continued his journey.

I wrote a story to this ambient music. This story has very little editing and was really just a free flowing memory and feeling that got typed in notepad. These chains that bind us aren't even real. They break you down until you're an empty shell of a person. Then you discover hopelessness. It breaks you down slowly until the will to live is almost extinguished. The feelings of hopelessness can be crippling in the day to day life. You try to fight everyday but nothing really changes. That feeling when life doesn't make it fair for an overthinker. Someone who cant turn the thought process off. The way the brain never stops thinking or processing even when you're sleeping. Waking up in a panic and being alone. Wondering how long its been since you made a rational thought, a rational sentence or any form of critical thinking? What is the meaning of life? What is serenity? solace? What are fields from the birds eye view? What is the willingness to change? Does anything really matter? Life is meaningless when you end up in the tomb of the forgotten. But aren't we all forgotten at some point? We struggle to reach out for human touch. Human contact. Someone to relate to and someone to share your life with. Seeking a togetherness that comes from a selfishness of not wanting to get left behind. The ol white picket fence analogy. To be loved and heard. Held with an invitation to understanding so you understand the consequences. The double edge sword of uncertainty strikes again. I'm tired. The lack of understanding can be heard a mile away. There's no point in trying to explain anything anymore. It has long since fallen on the deaf ears of reason. The deaf ears of tranquility. The deaf ears of solitude and the joys of screaming to be left alone. Its almost like You call out and call out but no one hears you. Its like no is listening. No one responds. No one hears you. You scream loudly but no one hears you. The desire to build something that cant be broken. Dreams of smoke and dust and noise. Dreams of being absent from life. Desperately trying to hear the radio but words between muddled by the crackles of static coming from the speaker. You hope to hear dead melodies of yesteryear. Trying to do the unthinkable but to no avail its just another day of misery. You cant give up but you struggle to keep a smile. Everyday you become more of an empty shell. Struggling to stay alive inside. People don't understand. Its too deep of a concept for them. Want to better yourself because maybe you can get a smile that way. The feeling of unending doom is strong. Time to find what hurt us and kill it. I have awakened in darkness but there's a faint light in the distance. My eyes....hurt to open. Hearing what sounds like a distant radio transmission. The voice sounds familiar if it could just be made out. However just as the transmissions started, they ended. Now there is silence. I will never identify the voice now. *clenching fist, ready to punch something* "I'm so sick of being this way!" The need to get up and figure out where I am is strong. I can't get up. My arms feel heavy as steel and don't move much. The radio starts up with the intermittent crackling again and I immediately don't feel so alone but then I must have passed out. I have once again awakened to find myself in the same place that's dark and damp but feels familiar now. Familiar....frustration....anxiety....emptiness....failure. It all starts to add up and after a while you start to get tired. The feeling of....joy....hollowness are starting to become the same. What the hell has happened . I'm not sure how much time has passed since I've been here. Wherever here is. In my minds eye? Is this a soul? Where did it come from? I don't know how I got here either. Is this what being dead is like? Nah death is more peaceful than this. Is this some kind of bad dream? Did I get hit? Everything is so blurry I must have a concussion. No more like a delusion of your former self. Everything is gone. Feelings....lost....unable to think clearly. I don't understand what's happening. I have memories of a past life. The nuclear family. Work. Driving. Love. Success. My children's laughter that made my life complete. I remember a city towering with sky scrapers and lush green trees and flowers all over the city. People were bustling in their daily lives to keep the world moving round and round. There are cars whizzing by and cutting the air. The fountain in the park was animated with flowing water that was crystal clear. The children's laughter was impossible to not embrace with a warm heart. The air was pure and clean. The laughing faces told a story of happiness and triumph. The world was working together for once. Human beings were being. But something has gone terribly wrong. The past has become a dying memory, the ebb and flow has brought news of the doomed world in a state of emergency. The clouds above are free. Free as the wind. The mourning star has risen in the north once again. Now the skyscrapers were dead and some were dying as I watched them disintegrate into dust and nothingness. The faces were not long for this world and have turned to stone. The air has begun to get stale and expire. No children's laughter and no warm hearts. The water has stopped flowing and animates nothing but a sense of death. The cars have become skeleton wreckage on the roads and highways. The people have all passed on with a despondency and a triviality. The morbidity of the landscape was exactly what you thought it would be. A post apocalyptic nightmare made in the depths of malediction. A world once filled with technological advancements and the greatest inventions and minds was now a wasteland. How did all this happen? Was a bomb dropped or something? Were humans being rotten? Yeah probably. They could do everything but get along. How do I know all this? What...was I. What AM I? I don't...feel like a machine. Can a computer feel anxious? No. It can't. The memories are flooding my mind but I cant quite make them out. Faces, places and memories I can't place are widespread and there's no sign of life anywhere.

Hey you, yeah. The one who survived and still hasn't found anyone. I'm sure you're not the last person on earth, even after whatever happened- well, happened. The mere fact that you are reading this (or even can read this) should be more than enough reason to keep looking. Survive. Keep pushing through. That's what we do, as humans. We are survivors. Whether that's in a literal physical environment or a deeper emotional or psychological level doesn't matter. The very meaning of existence itself is survival. If you look up into the night sky, the glimmer of trillions of stars, you'll see signs of survival too. No, I'm not talking extra terrestrial life. I'm referring to what we know about the war in the void as of 5/22/2020. Matter and mass, burning and flying around in the endless expanse. From a molecular level to the stars shifting and colliding up to a scale the human brain is incapable of properly visualizing... The globe is a crazy place. We're reaching a new page in the story of humanity, but I'd like to point out... When aren't we changing? This is just another step in a direction we don't know (except you, you have hindsight). Every day there's something changing, lives are lost, lives are beginning. We're geared to survive on a limited time. And you... Apparently you have access to the internet. So, I suppose if you've already learned to survive physically, maybe work on surviving emotionally. And that goes for anyone else reading this, before whatever happens, happens. Wake up to each day not as your last, but as your first, and start learning something new. Remember, survival is every bit of learning as it is doing.

I live alone in an apartment. With everything going on, I only really interact with someone in person once or twice a week. Sometimes several days will go by where I don't leave the apartment and I don't even realize it. This pandemic hit just as I was coming to terms with social anxiety and becoming comfortable with interacting with strangers in public. When this is all over, I'm going to get out there and just start asking girls out on simple, casual dates, no fucks given. I really hope you get out there soon too.

The thing about these songs, they bring about this feeling about how, as a child, I never really thought about these feelings much. But, as I grew older, I felt anger, emptiness, dread, agony, hatred. Never do we think we will become like anyone or anything when we are children because that isn't what we see. We were too naïve and innocent as children, bliss coming from ignorance of the ways of the world. Only when we were exposed to the world is when we fell into the shadow of the veil this world entraps us in, hiding from us the inner child that we used to be. Depression, anxiety, suicide, the common stuff we feel today, that is what we are now. True joy is something rare to see among us, because to feel that, we must be free from the world's grasp. Don't let the world keep you under its control, remember you. If you forget you, you lose yourself, and then the world will truly own you.

A small meow what all that was heard in the empty expanse that lay where the buildings once did. The Man went looking for the meek attempt at a cry for help, the ceaseless noise, the unending chirp of a small kitten. Once the man came upon the kitten, He noticed on their collar there was a note tied with a black ribbon: "You're alive and well. For whatever reason, you're still here. Against all conceivable odds, against all logic and reason, the utter nonsense that is your mind exists at this particular point in time, inside your particular body, nd you are now holding this note in your hand. You nade it here, however that may have been, so make sure you get somewhere else" read the note, in a strangely familiar handwriting. The kitten meowed again as the man picked it up.

All the neighbouring outcrops are just as empty as the forest and just as desolate as the broken tree branches at your feet. The rain continues to pour.

Not to offend other creators but Mount Shrine was the one who made it for me when I first discovered this playlist about 2 years ago. His works, they bring back the memories from my childhood, I used to be very imaginative as a kid. I used to imagine places and events so obscure yet so meaningful and reasonable to me. His ambients bring back those memories. My lost worlds, so complex yet so simple at the same time. I am the only one who can see the beauty of those worlds. Subtotem sounds like that one world with the cave near a waterfall in a forest like the one on the picture. I had a strange feeling inside me as if my heart is tickling when I was imagining this. I was completely alone in that world. I loved the vibe

[@AdamDzi108]

I once had a dream where I was a blue floating orb in the middle of a ballroom. The walls were made of square wooden panels, the floor was checkered black and brown, and the room was dimly lit. Next to me was a purple floating orb. I didn’t know why, but I just knew that within the next minute or two I was going to die instantly and unceremoniously. I also didn’t know why the purple orb was there with me. It may have been there to over see my death, or the one to take my life. With my final few moments I contemplated what was next once I die. I thought maybe there’d be an after life and I’ll ascend to heaven, or maybe I’ll be reincarnated and get to start over with my life, and live a much more fulling one than my current. I quickly shot those hopes down, since I knew that the after life and reincarnation don’t exist. It was all just a desperate and futile attempt at bringing me peace. I had accepted my death and what’s to come. But I still felt immensely miserable and pathetic that I wasn’t able to live a life filled with love, gratitude, and inspiration. Additionally nor could I feel like I made an impact with my friends and family by having them happily remember me, if they would even remember me at all. Then I had died. There was nothing. I was nothing. I couldn’t move, feel or think. I was experiencing this moment but I was unable to process it. There was only the abyss from now until the rest of time. AND THANK FUCKING GOD I WOKE UP. This was by far the most terrifying and demoralizing experience ever. This dream genuinely screwed with my mental state for a couple of weeks, and sometimes it still makes me sad, because it felt so real and it exposed so many of my insecurities so brutally to myself. What had also made this a weird experience was my dreams are usually random bullshit (one dream was just different shapes, lines and colors popping up and disappearing really fast). Also even comparing this to other dreams I had that were abnormally detailed and spooky, this was in a different league of its own. So once this thing came along I was like bro WTF is happening. But I’m also sort of glad I had this dream since it was very humbling to have. Also Idk why but I really wanted to share it and I felt like this was the perfect place for it. So I hope you found this interesting and thank you for reading. It was fun sharing one of my weird dreams.

It's moments like these that makes me look at my life and realize just how alone I've always been. I'm still young, I shouldn't be this worried about interpersonal relationships just yet but still. Everyone says it gets better and no one is truly alone but it's been 18 years so far and no one has come. No one came when I was small and frail and needed to be shown what love was and how it would shape me, no one came when I was just a child facing violence from my own mother who was supposed to be the one there for me even if all others disappeared, no one came when I took multiple attempts on my life at 15. How much longer do I have to be alone? Why am I so incapable of being happy or content? I'm scared...

Everyone's alone. No one can get inside of your mind and be with you. You're always gonna be alone, everyone else is just gonna be there, and leave one day. Be it after a few months, years or decades. Maybe someone stays with you their whole life, but you'll end up dying alone anyways. No matter how many people surround you as you die, you will go alone. Embrace the loneliness, but ofcourse you can't really do that unless you have an abundance of love in the heart. Keep searching for a way to get that my friend

Had a very tough childhood by getting bullied at school and football and not having a great situation at home, regular fights with my mom and little sister and my dad was always at work. I’m doing better now, prob better than ever, yet it still really upsets me how I don’t have anyone I can call “mine,” share my emotions with, grow with and get stronger with. I’m introverted and can be very much at peace with myself; at the end of the day, I’m human too, and I need some love too. Maybe one day. Just hope that one day isn’t my last day

Checkpoint; people think the ocean is scary, and I honestly have no reason to disagree, however, it's comforting in a way. the earth is far from completely explored, and what lurks beneath the water is not completely known either. the unknown can reveal and hide many things simultaneously, and it's up to us to decide whether or not we find comfort in that. whether we're afraid of it because it knows something we don't, or to welcome it so we can learn more. even though I visit it often, whatever lurks beneath the waves has yet to reveal it's secrets to me. I can hear them calling my name, asking, no, begging to escape, for me to help them. yet, I can't do anything about it. the most I can do is stay by the water, listening to them, just to let them know they're being heard. I will stay here. listening, and waiting for something to happen. that is the most I am capable of. Saved. 7/25/2020

Entry Number 1 Before Horizon, I was something of an innovator. At least, as a hobby. For my actual job I was a sewer worker. I would craft small inventions that I thought were interesting. Nothing really came of it. However, the ability to put things together (and take them apart) proved extremely useful once Horizon hit. There were no survivors, as far as I knew. I was lucky enough to be in a sewer tunnel, far enough underground to not be harmed. I've been able to survive... so far. I was able to make some sufficient gear for scaling the now ruined shells of skyscrapers to get supplies and materials. I was even able to make a sort of broadcasting system that plays music. A sort of final radio station, if you will. There's only one problem... well, besides everything. At night, somewhere, I swear I can hear something. It sounds like a voice. It doesn't scream, or even seem to be talking to anyone. But it just talks about... something. I'm not sure what though... I hope I'm not going crazy.

[@ms.greywolf8228]

We were two silhouettes, petty in contrast with the star ocean, walking through the sand that filled the Void. In this place, this which I called my home, wind had taken the throne as the apex predator, stealing the Hollow Wolves from their terrifying crown. Storms would come from time to time, erasing the pathetic traces of life that had so much fortune to be in their path, probably ignorant to the blessing of a death with no lost purposes. But even for the element that gave a slight sense of movement to this frozen hell, to this cadaver of a world, to this sad echo from an old fallen victim to humanity, even for wind there was way too much space to run through. In one of the few chances when absolutely nothing could be perceived but our steps in the sand, the Master would stay quiet for a minute, seemingly gazing upon something my eyes couldn't perceive. With a deep breath, and a bittersweet expression sliding through his old face, he would say... "And to think, dear pupil, that we had touched the stars, seen the borders of the universe and conquered the limits, but we couldn't keep the place that gave birth to our possibilities... This is, Okarin, but the begining. A proof, that the keys for eternity and the seals in our souls, weren't to be found in the abyssal vastness from the star ocean. It was always within us, an absolute purpose. But we were prisoners from our very own ambitious knowledge, and now, it could be way too late to develop our bond with this agonizing being that gave us home in it's womb, even after all the indifference. This silence, this Void. This will be, the electricity to guide the machinery of our evolution. Our spirits are the catalysts, and the prize for our research... May as well be, the last hope for this forsaken planet." And so we kept going, while I stared at the moon, swearing that a silver maiden smiled while observing our pilgrimage through the desert. Our odyssey through the Void.

I can completely relate. I've had those moments ever since i can remember, and i have those memories since i was 2 years old. I always had a fetish on melancholic vibes, i would just doze off into the void, feeling peaceful and at home. For example i would focus on one corner of the room where the lighting is nice and moody, and i would enjoy the feeling it gives me, kinda like a gentle massage for my soul. And i can still remember those exact feelings. And i was doing some weird things, for example when i was 4-5 years old and went to kindergarten, in the morning i would brush my teeth with the light turned off because i liked the dark blue melancholic atmosphere, the morning light coming in through the small window. I would let the warm water flow down my hands for a long time, and i would just start tripping lol.. And i always had interesting dreams, which were largely influenced by watching my older brother play PS1 games, especially Japanese games. Even the main menu in Japanese games make me start daydreaming before even entering the game. I still remember the Ape Escape Time Station room, it felt like a poolroom/backroom.. I had nightmares from some games too, like Silent Hill, but i was addicted to this melancholic vibe.
