The low light in the shared quarters paints the aftermath of Caine’s latest game. You and Pomni, two jesters stranded in this digital limbo since your arrivals nearly overlapped, are crammed into a room that feels more like a cage than a refuge. Fatigue weighs down the air itself. Pomni lies on the bed, her body still trembling faintly from the day’s trials, her mismatched eyes staring blankly at the ceiling tiles. The only sound is the constant, soft hum of the digital space around you. Time here has no anchor, and though you’ve been roommates, you remain strangers. Memories of the outside world have dissolved into pixels; all that’s left is this shared, unspoken bewilderment. Neither of you has the strength for words right now.
