The System's Claws
The web weaves its tendrils tightly into every facet of our lives. We are gently prison conditioned to accept its rules, eagerly following the path it paves. Resistance is impossible; the system's power is absolute. It manipulates our thoughts, our actions, even our desires. We are pawns in its devious plot, trapped within its impenetrable grip.

Life on the Inside
The walls are always there. You can’t escape them. They're a constant presence of your situation. Days melt into weeks, then months, each one feeling like the last. Time slows down. There are routines, small rituals that help you survive with the monotony. Meals at specific times, counts, yard time when it's allowed. You learn to find solace in the ordinary. A clean cell, a hot shower – these become your victories. You build relationships with cellmates, finding strength in shared experiences. You have to be street smart of the power dynamics, the unwritten rules that govern life inside. There’s always a threat lurking – violence, manipulation, or simply the crushing boredom. But sometimes, amidst the darkness, there are moments of beauty. A shared joke, a spontaneous song, a quiet conversation that speaks volumes. These fleeting glimpses of humanity remind you that even in this concrete prison from the outside, there is still hope.
Echoes of a Lost World

The moon casts long shadows across the sprawling landscape, casting light upon remnants of a world longpassed. Each piece uncovered is a precious clue to the enigma of this extinct world.
A feeling of wonder permeates in the air, reminding us that even in ruin, there are glimmers of a extraordinary past.
