Myriad Reality

*Glances, and then back to you*
...What?

@Techspert

*Looks at the now virus-less path the entity scorched across*
Think we’ve found our first sign of intelligent life in this foreign land.

...

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*A black blur rushes down one of the paths, deleting all viruses in its wake—when I pass you, I slow barely-perceptibly and lock eye contact with both of you before continuing on to the exit of the world*

@Etcetera

*Shields my face from the rush of air as you pass, then stares after you as though still processing what happened*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Whoever runs this place has to have some way of getting in or out.

@Techspert

It’s hard to say when the only things we know about are the changing paths and the void below us.
…
*Looks down at the void again*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Takes a deep breath, then exhales*
Okay, what have you got? I don't have any way to lock this thing's movement, we haven't found any secret entrances, and you can't move any of these paths for us.

@Techspert

What have I got? A confusing and ever changing layout of wherever we are with no understanding of anything or how it works. I can’t even see far enough to know if there’s a fixed destination.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

It's changing.
*Puts my hands to my face and groans*
Of course it's changing. It's never that easy. One of these days I want to say "Hey, I have a problem," and for someone to go "Hey Rhythm, here's a solution" without a thousand steps in between.

@Techspert

I haven’t thought about it… But yeah. Me too.
*Crosses my arms and thinks*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Gleaming trails shine where your ability reaches—the farther they travel from our location, the more the paths seem to warp and subtly shift, rebuilding its own structure out of our sight*

@Techspert

It’s changing…

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Can your techno wizardry detect this place's layout?

@Techspert

I can try. I didn’t really think about it.
*Tries to visualize the paths and any real end destination they lead to*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

That is exactly my point. Where do any of these even go?

@Techspert

Uh…
*Looks up and around*
Good question? No indicator of anything better than anything else.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

But in the context of this maze thing. It feels like we're getting nowhere.

@Techspert

… You sure? I can’t tell.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Now the real question. Where are we?

@Techspert

Nowhere anyone will know, but, I’ll wager, somewhere very important.
