Grey's entire world was painted in white.
When he opened his eyes, all he could see was an overwhelming, radiant brilliance, an endless expanse of blinding light that seemed to swallow everything else. For a brief moment, it felt as though reality itself had been erased, leaving behind nothing but pure luminance.
However, the light did not last.
Within moments, the brilliance began to dim, receding like a tide being pulled back into the depths. Slowly, the true colors of the world revealed themselves once more, returning clarity to his vision.
As Grey steadied himself, he looked around, and what he saw made his breath hitch.
He was standing atop a vast and magnificent crystal palace, its structure stretching endlessly into the horizon. The palace shimmered with an otherworldly brilliance, refracting light in countless directions like a frozen ocean of glass.
