Land of Nothingness [5]
How long did it take Damien to traverse the island on foot?
That was a good question, and he was on a quest to find out.
He used the roads at first to get to the eastern city. The two locations were never given names because their entire existence was impermanent. He was only planning to pass through to get to the very easternmost coast, but he wanted to at least see how others were living.
The island told him that the cities were filled with people showcasing their own forms of Nonexistence as they worked on their creations. Was that not something he'd want to see?
Damien followed the road on his own two feet for a decent distance.
There were a lot of travelers like him. Not many had forms of transportation. Those who did were obviously using them to earn money.
The currency of this place was energy. To gain convenience, one was forced to sacrifice the fruits of one's efforts.
