I have been wandering around for a while now. I don't really know how much time passed since the walls are pretty monotone. I haven't come across anything alive but I saw some bones from somekind of animal. I also have no idea where I am anymore.
All I see is the same walls with the blue crystalls all over the place. What are those anyway? They shine with a blue light which seems to originate from the inside of the crystall. I stop and lean closer to one. Hmm ...yeah just like I thought. I have no idea how they glow like that. They seem to just...grow out of the wall. I stretch out my hand and try touching it. It feels strange cold and it vibrates slightly almost to weak to notice.
Skill activated Perfect knowlege
Skill Perfect knowlege wants to display information of touched object. Y/N?
Uhh yes? I thought on instinct.
Blue light crystal: This magical rock can be found in places with high mana concentration. It absorbs miniscule amounts of ambient mana to create a glow from the inside. Can be used as an alchemical reagent and in enchanting.
I flinched at the sudden windows that popped into my head. That really caught me off guard. What is this? Skill Perfect knowlege? How did I get that? I just touched the light crystal (as it is apparently named).
Also what kind of grand name is perfect knowlege? Hmm I already suspected this but this is not earth. This is some kind of a different world. I mean mana? Really? I died and now I'm in somekind of fantasy world with game windows popping into my head. Well at least I now know that I am not crazy. Hmm but if I have skills I bet there is a way to view them. Maybe it's thought activated? Show info! Character screen! Uhh... Status?

...There really is a status screen. But what's up with all this nonsene? I don't know my name so I can forgive that one but my race is lost soul? Not ghost? Or am I a subspecies?
And what's up with the error message for my lvl? And what kind of number is 100000 for a lvl up? I played quite a few games in my time and this seems either like I am high lvl or something is broken. Who wrote the stupid code for that?
I don't have any health well yeah I am dead technically. 200 mana huh? Would be nice to have a reference for that. I hope it's a lot. I don't wanna be weak if this is my new unlife.
Now it get's interesting. Everyone who played any kind of videogame willl tell you that what skills you have determins how you play a character. Well together with their stats but that seems to be unavailable. Stupid error message. Now levitation is kinda obvious. As is astral body aka my body. What is possession though?
Do you want information on skill Possession? Y/N?
Ohh like before! Is this Perfect Knowlege again? In that case YES!
Skill Possession. Activation toggled. Range touch. Allows you to take control of a object or creature. Grants all knowlege of object/creature. Warning! If you stay in possession too long your soul will merge with object/creature and it becomes permanent. Warning! Can be resisted with skills or wisdome stat. Warning! If object/creature is destroyed/dies you die as well.
Wow! That's really cool! So I am some kind of ghost huh? But it also seems dangerous. Hmm maybe if I... Info Perfect knowlege!
Skill Perfect Knowlege. Always active. Range sight. Grants knowlege of object/creature in sight if prior knowlege exists.
Huh? 'If prior knowlege exists'? But I've never seen a light crytsal before. Hmm maybe from something similar like a book or game? Well it's good to know it exists, though I have no clue why I would have that skill. Seems kinda like a cheat.
Now with that out of the way let's continue exploring!
