[img[city.gif]]\n\n<html><h1>City</h1></html>\nYou never expected this. \nSo much and all at once. \nThe momentum and inertia of man and machine. \nStreaking lights and throbbing tones. \nYour senses thrill to the point of ecstasy. \nToo much too soon, you wonder. \nSlipping quickly. \nSlipping assuredly. \nUnder the pressure of thick [[darkness|Desert]]. \n\n<html><iframe width="0" height="0" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F79058050&color=000000&auto_play=true&show_artwork=true"></iframe></html>

[img[ocean.gif]]\n\n<html><h1>Ocean</h1></html>\nYou are born. \nYour senses softly awaken and you are aware of warm currents and slow movement. \nMyxozoans and plankton pass by. \nCrustaceans beetle on their busy way. \nWater permeates your body and our heart beats steadily. \nYou are ready to move. \nTo move on and up where surely there is [[more|Lagoon]].\n\n<html><iframe width="0" height="0" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F77249899&color=000000&auto_play=true&show_artwork=true"></iframe></html>

Why? \nA groan and you drag cracked skin and a prickling mind towards what can only be the end. \nOne possible direction and you are certain there is nothing left but to move forward. \nYou pass the remains of those who couldn't face the journey. \nYou [[pass|Chapel]].\n\n<html><iframe width="0" height="0" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F78572618&color=000000&auto_play=true&show_artwork=true"></iframe></html>
