Darkness. That is all she can see. It was wrapped around her
like a straitjacket. Not allowing her to move even if she wanted. It was pulling
her further and further into the void. Into the darkness. To her this was
normal. As she opened her eyes everything was a blur. There was darkness and light.
Moulded into one. She could see what was in front of her and her surroundings
but only in the distance, like a television at the end of a pitch-black room. She
knew this sight very well, too well. She had been there many times before and
each time was the same. She didn’t know how long she would be there, but she
knew they would be there soon. She had named them the voices. She had never
seen their faces, but they would always show up sooner or later. They always started
with whispers but their volumes would grow into a shouts and would pull her further
and further into the darkness, like sirens calling out Sailors to be their
pray.
