Oh great heavens above I'm at the cliff that I was shown So tell me now what I must do And he's met with silence Oh lost wanderer That beckoned me forth tonight Tell me now what I must do And he's met with silence Xine unfolds himself on the ground Desperately trying to formulate a plan He knows the area front to back The only place unexplored is... Xine stares over the cliffs Soaring above the sea He takes a deep breath And begins his descent He puts his feet firmly into footholds His only safety net the ocean below him And the rope he had just now Realized that he had left back at his house His foot slips out from under him Sending a cascade of rocks tumbling into the sea And Xine is only hanging on by his left hand And it's slowly giving way leaving his nothing greater Than the pebbles and rocks that came before him He swings his right hand frantically above Searching for a possible handhold But he's falling now, straight towards the sea Flailing and grasping manically Hoping, just hoping that he catches a ledge- And succeeds He throws himself onto his ledge His arms and hands bruised and torn But all the pain fades away As he glances up to where he fell A tunnel within the cliff face He must've uncovered the entrance to Xine chuckles to himself This is the sign that he had needed Xine clambers to the entrance Illuminated by pale moonlight He takes a few cautions steps forward As darkness envelops him He stumbles through a winding pathway Calling out to anyone for guidance He's only met with the echoes of his voice Taunting him with his own question Xine continues to traverse blindly The walls besides him his only companion Then he notices a blue glow ahead Straining his well-adapted eyes He hurries ahead to investigate the source To find glowing blue veins within the rock Xine's in a full sprint now Following the strange blue streaks of glowing light He's met with a breathtaking sight As the tunnel opens up into a giant dome The ceiling is dotted with the same blue light Mimicking the stars from the heavens above Next xine notices the markings lining the wall Still made from the same vibrant light Xine makes his way over to investigate To find that they're depicting a scene Two figures are drawn on the surface Side by side, they stand together Between their heads, three liens are drawn Connecting one body with the next And Xine has to take a step back As he tries to wrap his mind around this He barely has time to process it Before he notices the plethora of other engravings An eye is shown, surrounded by strange lines As well as a smaller, closed eye Surrounded by the same, peculiar glowing lines He doesn't notice it at first But the orbiting lines are connected at certain points And Xine still doesn't know what to take away Two eyes, one opened one closed With those same interconnected lines Xine moves on to the next depiction Showing the same open eye from before This time surrounded by strange and foreign objects Like an ovoid object seemingly on fire Or towering rectangular structures Like the ones he saw in his dream And a plethora of other objects That Xine can't even begin to describe The next scene catches his attention quickly As its the biggest of them all A planet is depicted, with immaculate detail But where trees and plaints should be There's nothing but metal and lights The planet's inhabitants denied its gifts And foolishly began to supplement them And Xine started to put the pieces together The next scene depicts a group of figures Gathered around a circular table In the middle only an ominous vial And what Xine thought to be a small plant But there was a gaping hole in the center of it And he thought to himself, about the glowing vial Who would make such a terrible thing What would deserve such a terrible thing The next scene makes Xine's heart drop Because he knows that he's seen it before The piles of bodies, the fire, the smoke And then he begins to put it together The planet from his dreams And the one depicted here are one and the same But that doesn't answer the question Of where it is, or how it led him here The next scene depicts the two eyes again This time, it shows one of those fire ovals Moving towards the smaller shut eye And Xine is tired of all of these fucking symbols He doesn't want any glowing pictures He just wants someone to comfort him Someone to tell him what the hell is going on And he turns his head to the next scene And suddenly he knows He understands As he comes across an engraving of Someone carving this very cavern Xine comes to the next engraving But this one doesn't have any pictures It's just words, a set of instructions They were left here by the creator of the caverns, the survivor from Eno The dead planet Eno, thought to be deserted But Xine doesn't know what to believe anymore He begins to read through the instructions Visualize yourself in your mind with nothing around you Close your eyes, and eliminate all of your other senses Focus solely on yourself Let your mind wander Relax, and note the changes to yourself Note how the scene shifts, how the nothingness around you takes from And when you're ready, open your eyes You'll know it Xine chuckles to himself As the absurdity of everything crushes down on him It's the middle of the night And he found a glowing blue cave beneath his farm He must be hallucinating Ever since he saw that spark He overexerted himself yesterday And let his imagination get carried away He makes his way out through the tunnel Delirious and sleep deprived And is greeted with the planet Eno Hovering ominously in the distance Xine chuckles to himself once more He's already come this far It can't hurt to play along He closes his eyes and begins
