Chapter 70: The time passes by so quickly...
Etheral was happy with his work, his creation was practically a video game, it had a day-night cycle, weather just like his other level... But this seemed to be too normal, he made the thing from above on level 69 pretty much visible, but this quirk alone wouldn't make this level unique enough, he has somehow made a story line. As if it was an actual video game...
This made him question reality if it was even real when he was shaping it like clay. He just sat there thinking, while adjusting somethings to make this level look somewhat less real, removing the cycle and keeping it at permanent night, just like level 69. He created some secret passages which broke the illusion of this simulation like level. Those walls in which a person could noclip would go on for secret shops for rare items or upgrades for cars, since everyone gets their own at the moment they get here. He finished the last rough edges and decided to take a rest, perhaps in one of the apartments on the map, which wouldn't send a person to another level in most cases. Or the hotels which also had a chance to send a wanderer on another level, either that hotel level without known exits or the terror hotel to meet the gent.
He gave a sigh yet again before smiling and walking towards the closest apartment that wasn't a place that would cause a level switch. He has put up exit signs on the doors that would lead to different level, since he didn't want to spare the wanderers from enjoying his masterpiece. Then he stopped before the front door, knowing well that he didn't need actual rest... There must be something better to do. Like explore some more, or go pay the frontrooms yet another visit... He felt out of the need of both of them, he felt at peace without his own product, he just accepted he never belonged anywhere and just smiled, yet there was sorrow into his expression. Then he got another idea for a creation, but should it be a level or just a place for someone to visit. The idea was simple, just some landscape, mountains clouds and such, but instead of the clouds moving slowly, time would be accelerated. He has already gotten to the ethereal parts of the world... Why not create more?
He got on another blank plane of existence, visualizing the chaos, he closed his eyes for a few seconds before opening them again, seemingly appearing into that strange landscape onto the designated rest spot. Being a platform with a beautiful mosaic pattern, and a stunning natural views... Except the sky was acting completely different, the clouds moving quick shifting from form to form, into more beautiful patterns. He made himself a bench which was exposed to the sky underneath the the golden rays of the rising sun.
The effect it gave was beautiful and refreshing the movements making a lightshow in the sky, it just felt like the perfect place to just sit and watch as time passes by... "Maybe that's the reason I made this..." He said to himself sitting down and looking out. He just there, minute after minute, hour after hour, day after day and finally the weeks passed by like it was nothing... His mind was completely shut off, he just stared blankly as if he was a corpse occasionally scratching. The meaning of time seemed to fade away, as one loses track of time here, Maybe a random phenomenon that has slipped out of his will into this level, but this made it into a time capsule.
This just made the level even more unique.
