Okay so I have some time now (I never knew NaNoRen would keep me this busy!) so here is an unedited sample of my writing.
Code:
... It has only recently occurred to me.
But perhaps this is not the most fortunate situation for me to be in. Between a rock and a hard place, as it were. Then it again, being underground I am constantly between rocks and hard places. Sometimes I am also between rocks and giant fifty-meter drops which end in sharp spikey death and if not sharp spikey death then just getting splattered all across-
Well thats beside the point. All that's important now is that I now realise that I am indeed in a most unfortunate situation. But as far as unfortunate situations go, this is perhaps not so unfortunate as others.
Buildings. Buildings as high as the eye can see. Impossible angles forming in impossible ways. buildings as illogical and irrational as life itself. No doubt the creators of such buildings were also impossible creatures who we could never understand nor imagine. How could we? When these buildings are beyond our imagination to imagine. As my eyes follow the soaring lines and the flares of light as power traveled along the seams that weren't there but were there. My mind tried to comprehend but failed yet was successful at the same time. A testament to the sheer cannot-be-understood-ness of these things. I understood that it was impossible. I understood that these buildings, as vast as the cavern was, could not possibly fit in this space without some strange force aiding them. I understood that I would never understand.
My thoughts wandered. It wandered to thoughts of those who built these structures. Could we ever understand them? Are they still around? Will we ever meet them or see them or hear about them? Why did they build these structures? Could they even house anything?
I try to shake myself from this strange place. I try to tear my eyes away from these buildings, tear my mind from these thoughts. Deep inside I know that this place will be my death if I wander, if I do not rip myself from this strange place.
My efforts come to nothing and I remain. My mind wanders again, my strength begins to fail me.
This is most unfortunate...
These are my last thoughts...
