Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror and asked, “Who are you?” Have you ever wondered that what if you are actually not the person you are? What if you are just a physical resemblance of a dead person's mind, soul, and conscience? If that's true, who could be you? If possible, how could you meet each other? The only way, if ever possible, if ever there is no more other way to stay comfortable, to stop your curiosity, you must risk for this one action, your only choice— escape.

Escape Through the Kingdom Nobody Knows (ΛMNΣSIΛ TΔLΞS)

"Hi. Welcome to your journey. I'm Ancora. I am a spirit that will guide you in this place. It's a pleasure meeting you, Salus." Ancora greeted her.


"It's a pleasure meeting you. I want to ask something. What is this place?" Salus asked.


"Welcome to the Kingdom of Praeterei. This is a place of the summoned, just like you." Ancora answered. "The summoned are the mind, soul, and conscience of unconscious people. These unconscious people can still make it back alive if you escaped through the kingdom."


"So it means I can see my origin if I escaped here? But what exactly is the Kingdom of Praeterei?" Salus questioned again.


"Praeterei is a very vast place where only people like you and spirits like me can enter. This kingdom is not a paradise, but a very complex and troublesome maze. Every summoned has its own location and you can not see another person." Ancora answered. "What makes Praeterei special is that it offers you a lot of clues and traps."


"Before we get to the real journey, I will mention three rules. I want you to understand these simple rules. Is that okay with you?" Ancora requested.


"Of course." Salus said, in a kind manner.


"First rule: I am here to guide you. You can only seek help from me as long as it doesn't directly lead you to your breakout."


"Second rule: One should protect oneself. No one should protect others."


"Third, and last rule: Know what must be known."


"Is everything clear? If you do, I want you to go to that gear and scream these words. Estimo renci pixo." Ancora said.


Salus went to the gear Ancora mentioned and screams."ESTIMO RENCI PIXO. ESTIMO RENCI PIXO!"


The gears of the clock begin to rotate, and the hands start to move. Salus and Ancora can hear the ticks and tocks of a grandfather clock. A beam of light opens in front of them. The ground lifts them up like an elevator, and finally reaches the starting point of the kingdom.


"Welcome to the Kingdom of Praeterei, Salus." Ancora mentioned.


winter forest, is Praeterei?" Salus asked.


"Yes. Our journey begins." Ancora happily answered.
