38 Drowned (1/2)
The last chapter was a bit of a cluster fuck i admit an idea flung into my head very late time and i with a bit too much zeal ending up making a chapter and releasing it without much thought to the quality nor the actually ability to understand its confusing nature,so i apologize as this is my first proper try at story writing and my ability to turn ideas into a well-implemented element flopped .
Anyway ,here another chapter ,enjoy

Caleb dreamed he tossed and turned in his straw bed gathering a cold sweat and face contorted, he opened his eyes but not to a scene of light piercing into the church but a empty void,
He was sprawled on the floor ,he slowly raised himself up.
It was a sea ,but it had no tides, no ripples, it was a confusing thing , Caleb looked around, there was no feeling of wind it was just empty, it was a void ,a completely flat sea and he stood on it .
Apprehensive to the realisation he stepped back slowly and he did not find a stop , from far and wide A ominous eerie light covered the area with its din
Looking around he was confused
”System can you hear me ”
[$&*%^*£*&$$£^%*£]
”I guess not ”
Caleb looked around and walked forward in this endless expanse, each step producing ripples which disturbed the calm.
Caleb looked up and saw blackness, a void of anything, a black sky without blemish but with slight hovering orbs which pulsated above his reach.
Caleb looked at the murky waters and watched how each step produced a ripple, how it echoed out into the incomprehensible distance
looking down deeper into the murky waters, there were small baubles of light inside it glowing with an almost golden light which was consumed by the darkness but covered in a chain as if locked up in the depths, and as he focused baubles he saw fragments of images he wanted to get closer
Caleb lowered himself down pushing his face to the murky translucent depths, he saw orbs clearer, but there was more than one now, so many like a glittering sea of them in the murky depths some giving there faint light at incomprehensible depths consumed by the waters but each and everyone had a chain covering them.
He instinctively reached for one unconusoly but the water blocked him like a barrier to his intrusion like a protective film, he pushed further against the barrier, he could not pierce it.
”OPEN FUCKING SESAME ”
Caleb with a missive thud smashed his head against the watery barrier
He felt pain ,this was no normal dream but he pushed on ,he needed answers
