The sound of silence?


The silence rips your ears to shreds. It's cavernous, dark. Foreboding.


Nothing stirs.


Your pounding heart and your irregular breath are all that breaks the silence.


You have no way out.


The labyrinth spirals continually.


Who knows if there is any way out?


Who could know that true silence was so loud?


You wander aimlessly it seems.


Your only scrap of hope is the knowledge that if you continue to walk along one wall, you will eventually get out.


But what will you get out to?


Could this labyrinth be all there is left in this world?


The silence kills, but you are safe within it.


Do you want to leave?
