Reuniting With An Old Enemy

I was mesmerized by the sights surrounding me—especially the boxes that floated above me.

'What the…'

The items within the various transparent cubes were suspended—devoid of any motion or activity.

It was as though they were stuck in time.

I could also see information about them by the side—like System stats.

This feeling felt awfully familiar.

And so, as I witnessed a seemingly unlimited array of cubes floating in the air—like stars in the night sky—I had fleeting thoughts.

These items that were fixed within the endless cubes dominating the boundless ceiling called for me, yet I could not explain it.

I could only stare with my mouth agape.

"Can you see me?" The voice from earlier called out to me.

What a useless question.

How could I see a single person among an unlimited cluster of cubes?

However… just as I was having these thoughts, one of the transparent infinite boxes descended from above.
