The Void

I didn’t know where I was. I had remembered blacking out, and I woke up in this dark place with almost nothing around in every direction. The only exception was a woman who stood there dressed all in white.

“You are in the void now,” She said.

She responded to my questions before I even had the chance to ask them. “The voice is a very special place,” She continued, “You are free to leave at any time, but I suspect you remain here for a reason. Unlike in the outside world, you can be anyone or anything you wish in here. I was a man on the outside, but I remain here because I want to maintain this form. But as you can also see, it is empty and lonely in here. Even I will disappear shortly and return to my own void of solitude. But the choice is still yours. Remain here in the nothingness and be anyone you wish, or return to your own body in the real world.”
