Darkness.
All he could see was an endless black. Silence deafened him. His eyes stayed closed as he drifted in the nothingness around him.
Then sensations returned. From the oblivion he suddenly felt cold stone beneath him, stretched across his back where he lay.
...lay?
Sound assaulted his ears. Crackling, beeping, white noise. But it was all faint and garbled, as though his ears were underwater.
His fingers twitched, the only body part he could find strength to move. Then finally, slowly, his eyes opened, fluttering and struggling against the light outside their lids. All he could see before him was light. Light and faceless shapes of faint color.
Where am I...?
