As I finally saw the world around me, I was baffled by a spectacular sight. The forests, buildings, sky and earth formed out of tiny, blue particles like a puzzle of dots. It was as if a scion storm spun around raging and creating chaos, yet the chaos spawned the surroundings. Bit by bit, the world was painted giving everything form and color.

As I reached the opening, the surrounding persons still held their expressionless faces. The few persons that differed from the norm were mostly of the opposite sex, though there were exceptions. They didn't matter as the moment I stepped in the territory of the still forming castle, A huge surge of power rushed into my bones and blood. For some reason, I became immensely powerful.
