The Edges of the World

Godslayer spoke a bit more about this barrier that was around the world, and how it affected the entire world and was weaker as it got lower.

There wasn't much to learn after that, but at least Alex was now happy to know why there was atmosphere only on one side of the land. That made him want to see the other side.

How did it look on the other side of the world? A place with no air, no life, nothing. He would go there one day, but it would be a long time in the future.

They continued walking silently, a few of them silently panting for more air, failing to get used to the lack of air. They knew they didn't have to breathe, but even then muscle memory took over for the most part.

Alex was the same many times and had to keep himself from trying to suck in air and fail.

The other worlds that glittered in the sky, or what most people simply referred to as the stars, slowly dwindled as dawn seemed to be on the horizon.
