Chapter 10: Bound by Destiny, Hated by Fate
My eyes slowly fluttered open, revealing a world shrouded in unsettling familiarity.
Before me sprawled a grayscale domain, devoid of color and life.
Towering stairs stretched out in both directions, ascending and descending into the depths of the unknown.
Countless hallways snaked through the vast expanse, lined with countless doors that led to unseen horrors. It was a place trapped in a perpetual state of dreary monotony.
Amidst this desolate landscape, a huge monitor levitated into the air, emanating an eerie glow.
The monitor displayed an array of small cubes, each containing a screen that revealed the punishment cells of eternity.
The faces of the condemned, eternally trapped in their torment, flickered across the screens. Above each criminal's head, a timer ominously counted down, marking their endless suffering.
