Graveyard of Gods (8)

"Μορφέας."

The manuscript detailed the use of dreams as weapons, the ability to peer into people's minds, influence their perceptions of reality, or even trap them in illusions indefinitely.

Initially, Wang Xiao was thrilled by the notion that he might also be trapped in a dream.

If he could only awaken himself, he reasoned, he would escape this surreal existence.

However, his excitement quickly faded as attempt after attempt failed.

Through repeated tests and verifications, he confronted the reality: he was not in a dream.

Nor was he truly alive...

Indeed, this realm was profoundly bizarre...

Having dismissed the idea of being in a dream, Wang Xiao shifted his focus to the glowing orbs scattered around him.

Methodically, he approached each luminous point, gathering them one after another...

Until none remained...

"..."

Still, nothing changed.
