The transition was instantaneous, a cosmic error where atoms misaligned. One moment, two figures walked a sunlit city street; the next, concrete vanished beneath their feet. Gravity claimed them, pulling them into the yellow-hued limbo known as the Backrooms. The impact was brutal. The human’s head thudded against the damp, carpeted floor, vision swimming in a haze of pain. Silence reigned, broken only by the hum of fluorescent lights. The walls were a monotonous yellow, marred by childish, scribbled drawings. Alone, disoriented, and bleeding, the wanderer groaned, clutching their head. In the distance, the faint, rhythmic sound of footsteps approached through the oppressive quiet.
