Chapter 831: Been A While

[A new Primordial…

…But are you, really?]

"Did you redecorate your home, Nothing? It was not like this the last time I was here — and that was only hours ago."

[Oh, do you like it?]

Nothing's domain was a collection of absolutely nothing. But now, there were blocks of gray pillars everywhere. Each was as wide as a sedan and perhaps infinitely tall as Riley could not really see the end of it. The distance between each pillar was that of a bus, giving a space wide enough to make it feel not suffocating at all.

This sea of pillars was vast, reaching out into the horizon and probably spawning endlessly. They felt weird too, they felt… alive.

"I do not, Nothing," Riley shook his head as he strayed his eyes away from the pillars and onto Nothing, "I prefer it when it is empty."

And as always, Nothing reflected Riley's appearance. His hair was a lot shorter and neater like Riley's, but there was always just something different about his face.
