I sat there; just sat on the wooden bench overlooking the endless crystal-clear ocean. There was a key on a small island to my left, which I assumed I would need for another adventure in this ever-evolving world we people knew as the Atmosphir. I was the first to explore a chain of floating islands that were known as the Sunburst Islands, and ever since I had discovered them, I had sat on this bench and pondered many things. Today I sat pondering another thing, an important thing—whether or not I should explore the Sunburst Islands even more…

I decided it wouldn’t hurt to explore more of this new land and so I hopped over to the island to the left, grabbed the key, and started hopping on my way through this scenic isle of twisting and turning sandy orange islands.

I soon arriv- I’m sorry, I haven’t introduced myself, have I? Hello, my name is boberto. I am a well-known inhabitant of this world and I welcome you to my ever-lengthening story.

So where was I? Ah… And so I soon arrived at a wooden spinning spike trap, and a few platforms that didn’t seem to be well supported, because when I stepped on them, they fell into the water a few feet below. I ascended higher and higher into the islands, until I reached a boundary—a locked door.

I cautiously approached the door, and pulled the key I had picked up earlier out of my pocket. I held the key in my hands for a moment, as if it was a fragile young child, but it only lasted for a moment. I then grasped it tightly and placed it into the keyhole, turning it clockwise to unlock it. I heard a click that seemed to echo through the halls of a tower as the key unlocked; I looked up to see a tower looming over me, its ruined cobblestone walls in need of repair. I took a step forward.
