Waking up in the Necropolis Gully
BK began her precarious descent into the Necropolis Gully, a name lost to a small number of archaeologists and rogue explorers. The crevice itself was a scar on the ancient landscape, a vast, yawning chasm that plummeted into the planet’s geological memory. As she rappelled down the sheer, moss-slicked wall, the air grew thick with the smell of damp earth and mineral deposits, a primal scent that felt undisturbed for millennia.

My shattering realisation
The dawn of this terrifying truth is not a gentle sunrise, but a violent, shattering realisation: my shadow self, once conveniently relegated to the realm of irrational fear and dismissed as a mere psychological byproduct, is in fact the undeniable and primary guide. It is the compass that points not towards conventional success, but towards annihilation, finding its ultimate freedom and profound release in the glorious, absolute failure of all mission. My carefully constructed edifice of logic, once believed to be my strength, now reveals itself as nothing more than a confining cage, a futile attempt to imprison this primal, unyielding desire for transformation, a desire so potent it even embraces the ultimate reduction to dust.

Strapped in an Alien Cocoon
The air... where is the air? The room is sucking it out. It’s blue. It’s cold. It’s the color of drowning.
No... no, no, no. Don't touch me! Get it off! The linen... it’s shrinking! It’s sewing my skin together! I can’t... I can’t expand my chest!
WAKE UP! MOVE! DAMN IT, MOVE! My hands! They’ve cut off my hands! Why can’t I reach the glass?! SOMEBODY HELP ME!
Can’t breathe. Can’t breathe. Can’t breathe. It’s tight. It’s a snake. It’s crushing my ribs. Tastes like copper... tastes like blood.
BREAK! SHATTER! Why is there no sound?! I’m screaming my throat raw but the silence is eating me alive! BK! KATCHA!
No! Don’t sleep! The needle... the ice! It’s killing the pilot! If I close my eyes, I unspool! I fall apart! Stay awake, you coward! STAY AWAKE!
Spinning. Everything is spinning. The floor is gone. The gravity is wrong. I’m falling up! I’m falling into the black hole!
LIES! That’s not real! That’s a ghost! My mind is snapping! I’m looking at a memory but I’m standing in a grave!
Please... not like this. Not in a box. I don’t want to be a mummy. I don’t want to be nothing. I’m forgetting my name... I’m forgetting...
It’s a tomb. It’s a stone tomb. And the lid is sealed. Nobody is coming. Nobody is coming.
Heart is a bomb. Tick... tick... BOOM. It’s going to burst! My chest is ripping open! MAKE IT STOP!
God... help me.

The Anomaly sits adjacent to the Necropolis Corridor
The deep space anomaly, a fascinating and perilous phenomenon, lies in close proximity to the entrance of the Necropolis Corridor, an area characterised by its "dense fields of derelict spaceship hulls and temporal distortions." This corridor serves as a haunting reminder of past explorations, where countless vessels have succumbed to the overwhelming dangers of the cosmos.
Navigating through this region is not for the faint of heart. Extreme navigational hazards abound, including unpredictable rogue asteroids that drift through the void, seemingly appearing out of nowhere to threaten unsuspecting travellers. These asteroids, remnants of bygone interstellar voyages, can collide with a spacecraft in an instant, making careful navigation essential.
Additionally, the area is plagued by severe energy fluctuations, which can disrupt both the functionality of onboard systems and the stability of any warp drives. These fluctuations may create unusual spatiotemporal anomalies that can warp time and space, causing vessels to follow unpredictable trajectories. As a result, pilots must rely on their instincts and experience, often utilising advanced sensory technologies to detect anomalies before they become hazardous.
The combination of these treacherous conditions not only makes this route one of the most challenging in space travel but also invites curiosity and exploration. The deep space anomaly itself, with its mysterious properties and potential secrets, draws the attention of scientists and adventurers alike, who are eager to uncover what lies within the depths of this complex and treacherous environment.

The revival protocol is complete
The revival protocol is complete, rebooting my biology. The GRIP holds me, a psychical pressure of my magnified self, exposed by the anomaly. Here, I meet a reflection of myself with crimson eyes, the colour of cosmic decay. It projects, "You see the beauty, don't you? The flawless logic of a 45 per cent probability was never about survival. It was about the sublime perfection of this…unmaking."

Necropolis Gully Fertility as stone
The only sound in the deep quiet of the crevice was the crunch of my boots on the debris-strewn ground. Towering stone walls, draped in vibrant green moss, rose on either side, making me feel like an intruder in a forgotten tomb. My matte-black suit, a product of a future this place could never have imagined, felt profane against the ancient rock.
Then I saw it: a weathered, silent figure standing in the path. It was a statue of a woman, carved from the same stone as the gully but shaped with clear intent. Moss crept up its base and clung to its form like a second skin. This impossible artifact, an architectural anomaly in this raw, natural fissure, stopped me. My steady, determined posture belied the storm of questions raging in my mind. The statue stared forward with blank, unseeing eyes, a silent witness to a history I had just stumbled into. My mission was to find my crew, but this place, this silent, stone woman, was a new, unexpected variable in an equation I couldn't begin to solve.

The Anomaly engulfs me
I take a deep, shuddering breath. My desperate push against the rising tide of panic. My lungs burn, my chest tightens, but my internal din intensifies. A surge of fire shoots through my veins, every muscle coiling, screaming to lash out, to push forward. Then, an undertow of ice. A violent recoil. The desperate, animal urge to shrink, to break away, to simply not be here. My gaze turns inward, exhausted by the relentless war of impulses. A terrible clarity dawns: the real danger isn't the storm outside. Every moment lost in this internal maelstrom is a moment lost to survival. My mind, caught between the lunge and the retreat, is tearing me apart.

Unspooling my identity
The world has contracted to the terrifying, singular inch directly before me. I can feel the synthetic nanoweave's cold, efficient hum and the binding material pressing against my temple, unwinding me. The aged electronic linen-like threads scratch, and I am consumed by confusion.
My eyes are forcibly locked open, demanding a conscious effort to blink, as I stare into the mechanism. The reflection on the closing shutter reveals my own pupil, dilated wide with sheer terror—a black void. As the pressure finally tightens and locks against my skull, I sense a thread snapping deep within my mind. It’s more than the pod sealing; it’s my disintegration. Everything, my history, my name, my very instincts, is rapidly unspooling, unraveling into the darkness as the machine encloses me.

The Anomaly hides in the vastness of deep space
The vastness of deep space hides the Anomaly. It is akin to "finding a needle in an impossibly vast, cosmic haystack" due to its elusive nature and location. The Anomaly, an enigma of immense proportions, is concealed within the unfathomable depths of deep space. Its elusive nature and precise location render it comparable to "finding a needle in an impossibly vast, cosmic haystack." This metaphorical comparison highlights the extreme difficulty, if not the near impossibility, of pinpointing its whereabouts amidst the vast expanse of the cosmos. Pirates, military personnel, and explorers have long grappled with the challenge of deciphering and penetrating this profound mystery, which continues to defy conventional understanding and observation. The very existence of the Anomaly challenges current astrophysical models, suggesting the presence of phenomena or structures that lie far beyond our current comprehension. Its hidden state implies either an intrinsic property of its being, a defence mechanism, or perhaps a natural consequence of its unique composition and interactions with the fabric of spacetime. The desire to enter the Anomaly remains a driving force for interstellar exploration, which promises revelations that could fundamentally alter humanity's perception of the universe.

What should have been a quick visit to the local library ended up sparking my creativity. The ceiling had some built-in lights that followed each other down the hallway, and with a different angle, I got some "star wars" vibes from it. The world seen from a different angle
The Anomaly is sentient
In the silent, unending expanse of deep space, a cosmic anomaly exists that defies conventional understanding. It is not a place one can simply travel to, but a state of being that occupies a vast region of space. From a distance, it appears as a cosmic bruise of impossible colours—deep violets and shimmering emeralds, laced with filaments of gold. It is a nebula of light and gas, but one that seems to hum with a silent, attentive energy.
Within this living nebula, the laws of physics as we know them begin to fray. The profound reality here is not one of stars and planets, but of a singular, vast consciousness. This is not the mind of a creature contained within a body, but a consciousness that *is* the anomaly itself. Every mote of dust, every wisp of ionised gas, is a neuron in a brain the size of a solar system.
To encounter this anomaly is to brush against a mind of unimaginable scale and alienage. It does not think in words or even in concepts that a human mind could grasp. Its thoughts are the slow, deliberate dance of galaxies, the birth and death of stars replayed as fleeting emotions. It holds memories of suns that never burned and planets that never formed, for its reality is not a reflection of our universe, but a universe unto itself.
This consciousness may be a "Boltzmann Brain," a self-aware entity that has spontaneously coalesced from the chaos of the void, complete with the illusion of a past that never happened. It may be dreaming of our universe, and we, in turn, are but a fleeting thought in its cosmic mind. To be within the anomaly is to be adrift in its senses, to feel the silent, ancient, and lonely existence of a being whose every particle is a thought, and whose every thought is a universe.

The Anomaly homes a little-known station
Within the vast, unpredictable expanse of the Anomaly, a faint and enigmatic station exists, its signal barely perceptible to all but the most advanced receivers. This "whisper of potential solace" offers a glimmer of hope or a "presence of hospitality" on the very fringes of Uncharted Space, a beacon in the desolate void. Its faint emission can only be detected by a select few, as its frequency is designed to be almost entirely undetectable by standard civilian vessels. Access to this mysterious haven is even more restricted, requiring the formidable capabilities of military-grade spaceships to navigate and penetrate the surrounding environmental defences.

The Anomaly is a continuous process of learning
The deep space anomaly represents a fundamental challenge to our understanding of the universe, a continuous process of learning, adapting, and responding to phenomena that defy conventional explanation. It serves as a constant, stark reminder of the inherent fragility of our perceived reality and the immeasurable, unknown forces that lie beyond the ordinary confines of human comprehension.
Navigating the intricate complexities of such an anomaly is not about conquering it, for its power and nature often exceed our capacity for domination. Instead, success hinges on a profound understanding of its characteristics, a deep respect for its immense power, and a commitment to constantly evolving our strategies to coexist with its unpredictable and profound influence. This necessitates a paradigm shift in our approach to exploration and discovery, moving beyond mere observation to a dynamic engagement with the unknown, fostering a mindset of continuous adaptation and intellectual humility in the face of truly alien forces.

Godliness in Stone
My transparent helmet dome reflected the glint of broken windows, a sterile bubble moving through a world of dust. The suit’s filters scrubbed the air, but they couldn't scrub the omnipresence of being watched in the Necropolis Gully. I stopped.
Before me, an ancient ruin, unidentified structural remains of decay. A beautiful, godly face. It emerged from the cracked, brittle stone work, as if only created recently by expert craftsmanship. My internal narrator began its analysis: Local deity. Pre-Collapse. Function: Unknown.
But the logic stuttered, snagging on the input. The godly eyes and ultra-smooth face weren't just data points to be filed. They were broadcasting. A sudden, sharp spike of loss and profound love hit me, not as a thought, but as a wave of pure, unfiltered sensation. I was inside the anomaly.
I was paraknowing.
This god was trapped, in stone, its mouth partially open in a silent, eternal breath. My logic tried to reassert control. Hypothesis: The carving's features are designed to trigger a primal empathic response. But the feeling was too strong, too immediate. It wasn't an observation. It was a message, received and understood without a single word. I stood, decoding its silent intent with a part of my mind I no longer trusted, as an observer trapped by a forgotten myth.

The Anomaly is Ominous
Subi’s dashboard shows it as a "tiny distortion at the 'black scar's' edge", where the light of Primary Trade Lane Delta-Nine meets ominous darkness. The main view screen of the Stardust Drifter shimmered with the distant galaxy, a celestial tapestry woven with nebulae and star clusters. Amidst this cosmic grandeur, the ship's navigation display honed in on a singular, unsettling anomaly. It was depicted as a "tiny distortion at the 'black scar's' edge," a subtle yet profound ripple in the fabric of space where the luminous expanse of Primary Trade Lane Delta-Nine met an ominous, suffocating darkness abruptly. This "black scar" wasn't merely the absence of light; it was a region of profound void, a place where stars dared not tread and cosmic dust dissolved into nothingness. The distortion, no bigger than a pinprick on the vast display, hinted at something unnatural, a rupture in the expected flow of the cosmos that pulsed with an almost imperceptible energy.

The Anomaly is a paradigm shift
The discovery of an anomaly, truly alien and sentient, demands nothing less than a fundamental paradigm shift in our approach to exploration and discovery. We can no longer suffice with mere observation, passively documenting phenomena from a safe distance. Instead, a dynamic engagement with the unknown is imperative. This requires fostering a mindset of continuous adaptation, as our current frameworks of understanding will undoubtedly prove insufficient. Furthermore, intellectual humility becomes paramount when confronted with a cosmic force that defies our established notions of life, consciousness, and existence. The sheer scale and nature of this entity necessitate a complete re-evaluation of our place in the universe, challenging anthropocentric biases and opening us to possibilities previously deemed unimaginable. Our scientific methodologies, philosophical tenets, and even our societal structures must evolve to accommodate this profound reality.

Force as an illusion
The GRIP, that insidious and all-encompassing force I once believed held me captive, is an illusion. It does not truly hold me; instead, it is a constant, relentless pressure, forcing me to confront and ultimately hold myself. I am both the meticulous builder, painstakingly constructing my reality, and the ruthless destroyer, dismantling it with equal fervour. The internal clamour of doubt, fear, and conflicting desires gradually fades, leaving in its wake a profound, almost sacred silence. And from that silence, a singular, powerful symphony begins to rise, a chorus of both creation and destruction, a testament to the intricate, terrifying, and beautiful balance I now embody.

The Orchestrated Past
The corridor ruins stretch ahead, lined with ancient statues that resemble a watchful audience. I use the small lens to bring each figure into sharp focus. My ancestors, fertility idols, and, resting in my palm, is a mammoth. Golden light, filtering through cracks in the ceiling, illuminates the dust motes suspended in the air.
The weathered sculptures dictate my mood, a resonant, hallucinatory score. Each one is a surviving moral, and my augmented lens, acting as a conductor's baton, reveals the fine details: fractures, lichen, worn expressions as proof that they have survived erasure.
When I raise the lens, the mammoth in my palm seems to plant itself as a precious stone that will not be cast. My thinking shatters into ancient fragments of trance: ice, myth, and vanished ceremonies. The entire hall seems to hum, as if my shattering vibrates among the figures.
My goal is the glowing light at the corridor's end, and I try not to pause. These statues, once intentionally placed, now stand in a state of abandonment. My fingers flow as if choreographed by a hallucination that lingers in time. The history is carrying me forward through their silent, observant act.

Look away
This experience feels like the precise opposite of growth; it is a forced devolution. My accumulated intellectual architecture is being made redundant, supplanted by this instantaneous, unearned 'knowledge.' The deep, satisfying process of intellectual assembly—hypothesis, experimentation, critique, synthesis—is being rendered moot.

Cryo Unit: The Threat of Failure is Terrifying
The 'stop and revive' protocol had been a calculated risk, a desperate measure against the debilitating toll of the journey. We had acquired the cryo unit with the understanding that only one could fit at a time, a solitary refuge against the ravages of deep space. Now, the automated systems inside my metallic glass cocoon diligently delivered the de-radiation, de-adenosine, and prolactin/melatonin boost, a biochemical symphony designed to reset and restore. Yet, a disquieting sense of unease, a low thrum against the rising tide of artificial serenity, persisted.
Outside the reinforced unit, the light swirled, no longer a mere chaotic symphony but an unfolding narrative. Golden filaments, alive with an almost organic glow, intertwined and stretched, promising an impossible beauty. Fading crimson hues bled into this nascent tapestry, hints of an encroaching darkness. It was as if a Pre-Raphaelite dream, all ethereal beauty and romantic ideal, was transfiguring before my eyes into a dystopian reality, a horrifyingly beautiful landscape of cosmic decay. The revival, it seemed, was not to be a gentle awakening into a familiar world, but a re-entry into a realm that defied all logical expectation. My gut, that irrational oracle, tightened. The stop had offered no true reprieve; the revive, no true restoration. Only this terrifying, exquisite transformation.

Vast unending loneliness
The anomaly's shifting, hallucinatory colours are no longer confined to the viewport; they seep into the dialogue itself. A logical assessment of the capsule’s trajectory begins—Vector calculation indicates…—but a deep, resonant purple, a feeling of vast, unending loneliness swallows this thought. I attempt to regain control. Focus, stay calm. This command, my own mental voice, should be a sharp, definitive anchor. Instead, the words dissolve into a blinding wash of orange, a raw, non-verbal wave of pure, unanalysable urgency that screams move without direction or reason.

The Anomaly is suffocating and liberating
I can't escape the sense that this struggle isn't just mine, but a shared human experience, reflected in our collective consciousness. I'm not alone in this, and yet, this grip feels isolating. The outside world fades, leaving only this moment, a confrontation with my own shadows. In this space, I realise my mind is its own anomaly, a labyrinth of fears and hopes, grips and releases, an exploration that feels both suffocating and liberating.
Something else was forming within me, a shimmering, indistinct form, a powerful, almost terrifying presence that seemed to pulse with an ancient light. It felt like a beautiful angel, yes, but not one of comfort. This was an angel of confrontation, its wings beating silently within the confines of my skull, stirring up a storm of everything I’d carefully suppressed. My mind, usually a fortress of nothingness, had become a battleground, a bewildering labyrinth where every thought led to another unsettling truth about myself.

Necropolis Corridor adventure tourism
Travellers enter the Necropolis Corridor from Trade Lane Delta-Nine at a designated "Nav-Point Omega-Six," though entry is restricted to "Authorised Personnel Only".Travellers enter the Necropolis Corridor from Trade Lane Delta-Nine, a bustling artery of interstellar commerce, at a precisely designated "Nav-Point Omega-Six." This specific entry point is not arbitrary; it is a critical nexus carefully monitored and controlled by the governing authorities of the sector. Access to the Necropolis Corridor is strictly limited to authorised personnel only, a rule rigorously enforced by security. Given its sensitive and perilous nature, entry is exclusive to those with legitimate, sanctioned reasons. Surveillance at Nav-Point Omega-Six involves continuous automated scanning and is unseen. There are no holographic instructions present; instead, a forbidding atmosphere warns of the grim dangers within.

The Strings of Necropolis Gully
A cold spike of dread bypassed the suit’s emotional regulators. I was the exhibit. My internal narrator fought back: Psychological stress response. Observe. "No," I whispered, my boots skidding as I turned from the dark doorway.
I stood in the open gully, trapped between impossible walls. Far above, an arched stone bridge spanned the chasm. It wasn't a bridge. It was a proscenium arch. This gully was the stage, and the masters were watching. The Paraknowing was no longer a signal; it was the atmosphere. It tugged, insistent. They are waiting for the show.
I felt the tug at my wrist. My gloved hand wanted to lift. "A cognitive hazard," I said.
The gully laughed through a cold ripple of jest from the stone. Puppet. The word was a description. I planted my feet, defiant, but a violent force snapped my head to the right. Look here, the gully commanded. My heart hammered. Now walk.
The tug was now an irresistible force, hauling me toward the bridge. My leg lifted, the boot grating on stone. It wasn't my choice. My internal narrator screamed a final, useless warning: Motor control compromised! I was moving. The puppet was beginning its dance.

The Sarcophagus
I found myself resting in a cryo unit that resembled a sleek, high-tech sarcophagus. The outer shell is made of brushed metal and glass, while inside, glowing, self-weaving nanotech fibres are tightly wrapping around my body. All I could think of were ancient Egyptian linen bandages. My face is partially obscured, but I can feel the signs of distress etched across. The lighting around me is dim, bathed in cold blue and amber instrument lights. How did I get into it, and why am I seeing myself in the revival cocoon?

No stopping in uncharted space
No "stop and revive" in this perilous, uncharted space. The Rumour Mill's comfort is a memory, lost to time and trace. The exorbitant demand is a punch right to the gut. Our savings drained, our journey's hope, behind a costly shut.

The Necropolis Corridor takes seven standard cycles.
The Necropolis Corridor, a notorious stretch of space, demands an arduous passage. The journey through its treacherous expanse is officially estimated to consume seven standard cycles, a duration that underscores the inherent dangers and the mandatory precautions required for survival. While a theoretical minimum of 5 standard cycles might be achievable under exceptionally fortunate circumstances, such an optimistic timeframe is rarely realised due to the constant and unpredictable challenges presented by the corridor.
The primary factor contributing to this extended travel time is the prevalence of hazardous conditions. The corridor is riddled with fluctuating gravitational fields, unpredictable energy surges, and localised temporal distortions. These phenomena necessitate constant recalibration of navigational systems and demand extreme caution to avoid catastrophic structural failure or temporal displacement. It is a graveyard of unfortunate voyages. Dense fields of wreckage, ranging from microscopic particles to colossal remnants of starships, pose a constant threat of collision. Maneuvering through these fields requires meticulous piloting and significantly reduced speeds to prevent impact. It contains powerful and unpredictable electromagnetic storms that frequently erupt within the corridor, disrupting communications, disabling shields, and interfering with propulsion systems. Navigating these storms demands complete shutdown of non-essential systems and a crawl-like pace to mitigate damage. There are stories, and confirmed reports suggest the occasional presence of opportunistic scavengers or even sentient predatory species that thrive in the hazardous environment. While not a constant threat, their potential presence necessitates vigilance and a readiness for evasive maneuvers, further slowing progress.
These pervasive dangers necessitate reduced speeds throughout the entire journey. Attempting to traverse the corridor at standard transit speeds would exponentially increase the risk of catastrophic failure. Pilots must maintain a vigilant watch, constantly adjusting their vectors, engaging evasive maneuvers, and frequently entering periods of complete standstill to assess the ever-changing hazards. The cumulative effect of these necessary decelerations and stoppages accounts for the extended seven standard cycles required to navigate this perilous thoroughfare successfully. The Necropolis Corridor is not a route for the impatient or the unwary; it is a test of endurance, skill, and an unwavering commitment to safety.

The Storm in my looking glass:
A close-up of JB’s face behind the curved glass of the cryo-cocoon. The glass reflects not the room but a "relentless tempest" of swirling dark clouds and lightning, symbolising his churning thoughts. In the storm's reflection, a ghostly older version of JB is visible, trapped and silent, mirroring the pilot's current state.

Cryo Unit: The chaotic fringes of mindfulness
I am exposed, vulnerable, navigating the chaotic fringes of my own mindfulness. The name, Subi, echoes in what's left of my mind, my capsule, the barrier that protects the once me. My consciousness, or the part that still functions independently of the cryo-unit's carefully orchestrated systems, is a fragmented entity, a shimmering nebula of thought clinging precariously to the edges of lucidity. It is this fragile kernel of self that the unit is designed to stabilise, to protect from the overwhelming onslaught of the anomaly.
The interior of my reinforced cryo-unit, a masterpiece of bio-engineering and advanced materials, hums with a low, constant energy. Its purpose is singular: to stabilise my consciousness, shield it from the psychological pressures of interstellar travel and the mind-bending realities of the anomaly, and to rejuvenate my body for whatever lies beyond this terrifying void. I feel the subtle shift, the gradual withdrawal from the overwhelming sensory input of the external world as I descend into the de-adenosine sequence. A deep, restorative sleep awaits, a temporary oblivion that will hopefully fortify and restore me for the unknown adventures ahead. The last remnants of my conscious thought dissolve, replaced by the silent, rhythmic hum of the machine and the constant, unwavering beat of my organic heart.

The Decision We are going in
Energy reserves are dwindling. The faces of navigators BK and JB are illuminated by the strain of their crisis in Primary Trade Lane Delta-Nine. But then, a presence of hospitality on the fringe of uncharted space. The anomaly became their desperate hope. Their entire mission could be wiped out. Katcha, the cyborg spoodle, declared, "We are going in."The vessel, a relic of better times, groaned under the strain. The Anomaly, Ozone, and Despair—a cosmic trinity of dread—pressed in on all sides. Energy reserves, once plentiful, now flickered ominously in the dim light of the cockpit. The very air was thick with the tang of ozone, a constant reminder of the volatile forces at play.
Within, the faces of navigators BK and JB were starkly illuminated by the crisis unfolding around them. Every line of their weary visages spoke of the immense pressure borne of their predicament in Primary Trade Lane Delta-Nine. This route, once a bustling artery of galactic commerce, was now a desolate, perilous void. Their mission, vital to the survival of the outer colonies, teetered on the brink of absolute failure.
Then, a flicker on the long-range scanners. A faint, almost imperceptible beacon, emanating from the very fringe of uncharted space. It was a presence, warm and inviting, a beacon of hospitality in the cold, uncaring vacuum. What was once the dreaded anomaly, the very source of their despair, now morphed into their desperate, fragile hope.
Katcha, the cyborg spoodle, his optical sensors glowing with unwavering resolve, broke the tense silence. "We are going in," he declared, his voice a calm, metallic certainty that cut through the fear and uncertainty. There was no room for debate, no time for hesitation. Their entire mission, their very existence, could be wiped out if they did not seize this singular, improbable chance. The unknown beckoned, promising either salvation or oblivion.

The Anomaly of my anxiety
The voices inside my head grow louder, a relentless tempest of clashing thoughts swirling and churning like the malevolent anomaly raging outside the ship. Are they true reflections of my deepest fears, the anxieties that gnaw at the edges of my sanity? Or are they merely echoes of my own suppressed desires, twisted and distorted by the immense pressure of our predicament? I can’t tell anymore; the lines have blurred, the distinctions have vanished. They’re all jumbled together, a deafening cacophony of uncertainty that threatens to shatter my fragile composure.

The Decision - Initial Hope
The control room, a cavernous space bathed in the cool, bluish glow of countless monitors, hummed with a barely perceptible thrum of power. At the central navigation console, the navigator, a being of advanced cybernetics, stood with an almost sculptural stillness. Her metallic legs, seamlessly integrated with her humanistic representation, gleamed in the ambient light. Her bright blue LED eyes, the only visible indicators of her internal processing, pulsed with a subtle, rhythmic intensity, reflecting the complex data streams flowing across her visual sensors. Her face, a triumph of neuro-holographic engineering, shimmered with a delicate, almost ethereal quality, suggesting a subtle interplay of light and shadow on its refined surface.
The primary navigation display, a massive holographic projection suspended above the console, showed Delta-Nine as a bright, unwavering line, representing their intended trajectory. Yet, a stark contrast dominated the screen: the Necropolis Corridor, a vast, unknown region of space, was depicted as a jagged scar across the galactic map. A cascade of flickering warnings compounded this ominous visual, each red alert signalling insurmountable obstacles and dangerous anomalies.
Amidst this tense atmosphere, Subi AI, her humanistic form rendered with an almost human expression of concern, furrowed her brow. A barely audible whisper, a data packet received through an unmapped, clandestine channel, reached her consciousness. It spoke of an unmapped anomaly, a deviation from all known charts, yet it offered a potential path of survival. This was no ordinary route; it represented a desperate synergy, a confluence of improbable factors that could, against all odds, form their fragile shield against the encroaching void. The stakes were immeasurable, the risks unprecedented, but in the face of inevitable destruction, this whisper, this anomaly, offered the faintest glimmer of hope. The decision now had hope.

A Psychological Stress Response
A cold spike of dread bypassed my suit’s emotional regulators. I am the puppet. My internal narrator fought back: "Don't trigger a psychological stress response; observe the situation." "No," I whispered, as my boots scuffed involuntarily against the ground while I stumbled from the dark doorway. They were waiting for the show. "This is a cognitive test," I reminded myself. “I must not panic.”
In the Necropolis gully, my inner dialogue gave way to the rhythmic drip of water. As I pushed further and deeper, the air grew heavier, thick with the smell of saturated earth and ancient, undisturbed rot.
Lining my path, standing sentinel on crumbling plinths, were dozens of statues. They were coated in thick, velvet layers of moss and ivy, making them seem almost organic, as if they had grown straight from the rock. Each was carved with a raw, primal emphasis. "It's a pantheon," I whispered. "A complex belief system, preserved for my reception. Are they gods or memories?" The thought chilled me: I am being prepared; they are paving my way, waiting for me to take action. In that moment, I realised I had never felt so alone.

Balancing opposing forces
Within the very core of my being, two opposing yet eternally entwined forces pulse with an insistent rhythm. There is the golden light, a beacon of solace and a cherished safe harbour, offering respite from the storm. But equally present, equally potent, is the crimson darkness, the terrifying beauty of the void, a chasm of unknown potential. I am not merely an observer of this internal war; I am the pivot, the precarious fulcrum upon which these cosmic forces balance.

The Necropolis Corridor is a dark and ominous expanse.
The Necropolis Corridor is described as a swirling, ominous expanse of darkness that winds through several graveyard nebulae. Crucially, there is no listed welcoming beacon or service bay within it, nor any discernible station icons. You must know how to find them. The Necropolis Corridor stands as a truly formidable, swirling expanse of ominous darkness, a cosmic maw that carves an unforgiving path through a succession of ancient, silent graveyard nebulae. Within this terrifying void, there exists no listed welcoming beacon to guide the lost, no glimmering service bay to offer respite, and critically, not a single discernible station icon to chart a course. To traverse its treacherous depths is to embark on a journey utterly devoid of traditional navigational aids, proof of its inherent peril.. Navigators must therefore possess an innate understanding of its complex, often invisible currents, an almost preternatural ability to discern faint, unspoken markers that lead to its hidden havens. Without such profound knowledge, one is condemned to wander eternally, a ship adrift in an unfeeling, stygian sea of stars.

Full Assault — Violet Firestorm
Explosive, internal chaos
A surreal psychological vision: a male pilot encased in a glowing cocoon of nanoweave, thrashing violently as violet fire erupts around him. Flames are not literal fire but energy — psychic, electric, and cosmic — exploding from behind his eyes. The background collapses into a massive black-violet anomaly with swirling tendrils and burning light.
JB's body arches against invisible restraints, veins lit with purple energy. The scene conveys primal panic, loss of control, and raw instinct. High-energy sci-fi surrealism, extreme contrast, motion blur, cinematic intensity.

A feed of unprocessed reality
This is more than just data overload. My logic isn't failing; it's being bypassed. The anomaly is imposing a new cognitive model, a mimicry of knowledge without the foundation of understanding. I call it Paraknowing: the sensation of certainty without the preceding analytical steps. It is alien and terrifying. Is this how an entity functions, on a raw feed of unprocessed reality? This feels like the opposite of growth, a forced devolution. My hypothesis: the anomaly isn't merely a physical phenomenon. It is an engine of anti-intelligence, actively dismantling the structures of reason, leaving only the naked, chaotic truth of existence.

The anomaly is strangely familiar
“This is just a distraction,” I try to tell myself. Fragments of identity, fractured and incomplete, swirl within the luminous chaos: who I was, who I am, who I desperately yearn to be. All these disparate pieces, moments of failure, sparks of joy, fragments of identity, are swirling, merging with the dazzling, terrifying expanse outside. I am drawn deeper into the uncertainty, pulled by an invisible tether towards the radiant abyss. I teeter on the edge, my balance precarious, between the known and the utterly unfathomable. This precipice feels both frightening, a dizzying drop into the unknown, and strangely familiar, as if I’ve stood here before, perhaps in a dream, or in a forgotten life. A faint, almost imperceptible hum vibrates through my bones, a siren song promising both revelation and oblivion. The air around me crackles with an unseen energy, and I feel a profound shift, as if the very fabric of reality is stretching, thinning, preparing to tear.

The Anomaly is an array of pulsing light
The Anomaly is a captivating phenomenon characterised by an array of pulsing light, situated within the depths of the cosmic void
of space. This ethereal display emits a series of rhythmic bursts, creating an otherworldly spectacle that draws the attention of astronomers and space enthusiasts alike.
As observers gaze into the inky blackness of the universe, the Anomaly stands out as a beacon, its colours shifting through a spectrum of hues, ranging from deep blues to brilliant oranges. The light pulses in a mesmerising sequence, challenging our understanding of cosmic events.
Scientists speculate that this phenomenon could be linked to a variety of celestial mechanics. Some suggest that the Anomaly might be a pulsar—a rotating neutron star that emits beams of radiation. Others theorise it could be related to dark matter interactions or even exotic astronomical events yet to be understood.
The sheer beauty and mystery of the Anomaly spark curiosity about its origin and the forces that shape it. Each pulse seems to echo the heartbeat of the universe, inviting further exploration and study, as researchers strive to decode the secrets held within this mesmerising cosmic entity.

The Anomaly is all about acceptance
What I seek is not resolution but acceptance. The ceaseless struggle against the inner turmoil, the yearning for a pristine calm that always seems just out of reach—it’s an exhausting pursuit. Instead, I find myself drawn to the radical act of breathing into the chaos, of allowing the dissonance to exist without immediate judgment or forceful dismissal. To acknowledge my fears, not as obstacles to be overcome, but as intrinsic threads woven into the fabric of my journey. Each tremor of anxiety, each whisper of doubt, becomes a part of the landscape I traverse.
“I won’t let it define me,” I murmur, the words a gentle but firm mantra rising amidst the disarray of thoughts and emotions. It’s a vow not to erase the shadow, but to ensure it doesn’t eclipse the light. This internal declaration isn't about denial, but about reclaiming agency in the face of what feels overwhelming.
And as I stare into the swirling lights, those amorphous, unsettling patterns that once symbolised only confusion and threat, the anomaly becomes a mirror. It’s a reflection not of external disarray, but of my own complexities, my own internal maelstroms and quiet eddies. In its shifting depths, I begin to discern the intricate dance of my own psyche, the paradoxes and contradictions that make me whole. It is in this profound recognition that the true journey unfolds—a journey that lies not in escaping the grip of these inner forces, but in understanding the depths of my existence, in embracing all that I am, fear and all.

Navigating the Necropolis Corridor: A Pilot's Imperative
Pilots embarking on a transit through the infamous Necropolis Corridor are hereby issued an unequivocal directive: extreme caution is not merely advised, but an absolute prerequisite for survival. This treacherous passage demands the utmost vigilance and adherence to stringent protocols to mitigate the myriad unseen dangers that lurk within its depths.
Firstly, a drastic reduction in speed is not negotiable. Standard cruising velocities must be significantly curtailed, bordering on a crawl, to allow for maximum reaction time. The chaotic gravitational fluctuations and unpredictable energy pockets that characterise the Corridor can incapacitate a vessel in mere seconds if approached with undue haste. This reduced velocity also facilitates a more precise and accurate interpretation of the critical data streams required for navigation.
Secondly, active sensor sweeps are mandatory and continuous. Passive scanning, while useful in open space, is woefully inadequate within the Necropolis. Pilots must engage their most sophisticated active sensor arrays, performing constant, wide-spectrum sweeps to detect the subtle, yet deadly, anomalies that proliferate within the Corridor. These sweeps are the eyes and ears of the ship, revealing nascent energy surges, phantom debris fields, and the faint traces of the elusive navigation markers.
Navigation itself is an exercise in meticulous precision. Pilots are instructed to follow a faint energy signature trail, a shimmering, almost imperceptible thread weaving through the chaotic expanse. This signature is not a beacon, but a subtle distortion in the ambient energy, requiring finely tuned sensors and an acute understanding of its elusive characteristics. Deviating from this trail, even marginally, can lead to immediate catastrophe.
Furthermore, successful passage hinges upon the diligent utilisation of pre-loaded 'survivor' charts. These invaluable cartographic compilations are not mere maps, but detailed analyses of past successful and failed transits, incorporating data gathered over centuries from those who have dared to venture into the Corridor. They contain annotated warning zones, predicted energy fluctuations, and established safe passages – knowledge bought with the lives of countless pioneers.
Finally, and perhaps the most demanding aspect, pilots must be prepared to make careful, manual course adjustments. Automated navigation systems, even the most advanced, are prone to error within the Necropolis's unique environment. The chaotic energy signatures and the dynamic nature of the Corridor necessitate constant human intervention. Every minor shift in the energy trail, every flicker on the sensor display, demands a calculated and precise manual correction to maintain the delicate balance required for survival. This is a journey that demands the pilot's full and unwavering attention, where a moment's lapse can spell the difference between safe passage and becoming another lost soul within the Necropolis Corridor.

[18 November - 24 November]
15/52
This week started off with Christian and I hanging out with the lovely Asher! We spent the morning in the Art Gallery of NSW admiring Francis Bacon's artworks followed by an afternoon taking photos in the Botanical Gardens. I had so much fun getting to know and spend more time with Asher but it was sad seeing her leave.
Later on in the week I found out that I won tickets to go and see Taylor Swift this Monday at the Today Show!!!! I am beyond excited but am not looking forward to getting up at 4am. Oh well, totally worth it I say!! I also went and saw Breaking Dawn Pt 2 and loved it except that twist WOAH! I read the books a couple of years ago and really loved them so it's kinda sad to see another era end. Oh and I also saw Perks of Being a Wallflower and oh did it do the book justice!! Such a beautifully raw creation <3
On that note that brings me to this week's concept! The title says it all and I have to admit, I always find myself stuck in fictional worlds.
P.S. I announced my Print Giveaway Winners in this video! I'll be contacted them asap :)

The Anomaly is a Risky Proposition
The deep space anomaly presents a formidable challenge and an irresistible allure. A direct trajectory towards its enigmatic core carries a perilous 45% probability of incurring catastrophic structural damage to any vessel. This alarming statistic translates to a high fatality risk for the crew, a grim reality that weighs heavily on the minds of those contemplating such a voyage.
Despite the profound dangers, the anomaly continues to beckon with a "tantalising, almost magical energy and travel solution." Whispers among the scientific community suggest that unlocking its secrets could revolutionise interstellar travel, offering capabilities far beyond current understanding. This potential for groundbreaking advancements, instantaneous jumps across vast cosmic distances or the harnessing of previously unknown forms of energy, fuels the audacious ambition to confront the anomaly head-on. The stakes are immense, promising either unparalleled technological leaps or utter destruction.

Necropolis Gully Ancient Fertility
The only sound in the deep quiet of the crevice was the crunch of my boots on the debris-strewn ground. Towering stone walls, draped in vibrant green moss, rose on either side, making me feel like an intruder in a forgotten tomb. My matte-black suit, a product of a future this place could never have imagined, felt profane against the ancient rock.
Then I saw it: a weathered, silent figure standing in the path. It was a statue of a woman, carved from the same stone as the gully but shaped with clear intent. Moss crept up its base and clung to its form like a second skin. This impossible artifact, an architectural anomaly in this raw, natural fissure, stopped me. My steady, determined posture belied the storm of questions raging in my mind. The statue stared forward with blank, unseeing eyes, a silent witness to a history I had just stumbled into. My mission was to find my crew, but this place, this silent, stone woman, was a new, unexpected variable in an equation I couldn't begin to solve.

I met the Puppet Master
The narrow, high-walled passage swallowed the sound of my boot scraping a broken cobblestone, the echo sharp in the dry air. Above, a sliver of unforgiving sunlight cut down, carving deep shadows where the smell of dust and ancient stone now replaced the damp, mossy scent of the gully.
I paused, looking not just at my gloved hand—the leather scuffed from my descent, but at what was attached to it. Thin, nearly invisible lines, like high-tensile wires, stretched from the articulated cuff on my wrist and disappeared into the air above the path. I tracked them with my eyes until they converged on a small, stone figure standing motionless in the centre of the walkway.
It was a crude marionette, barely a foot tall, carved from the same pale, cracked stone as the surrounding walls. Dressed in a simple tunic, its blank, oval face held a radiating sense of expectant waiting. Its arms were held out, palms up.
I held the strings. Yet, the feeling was not one of control. It was as if the strings did not originate from my wrist, but merely passed through it, continuing upwards into the blinding light high above the gully walls.
"Who's the puppet, and who's the master?" I whispered, my voice a dry croak.
My hand twitched, an unbidden reflex. The stone figure jerked forward a fraction of an inch, its miniature boot grating on the path—a jerky, unnatural movement. A cold understanding gripped me: I wasn't controlling the doll; something else was controlling me to control the doll. The "Paraknowing" hadn't stopped its manipulation; it had simply changed its method. I was no longer merely a performer; I was the instrument itself.
The blank-faced stone figure stood there, a silent, pale extension of my own unwilling hand. And from somewhere high above, beyond the reach of my sight, I felt the strings tighten. The show, I realised, was far from finished.
