Unintentionally, my white pillows, sheets and blankets on my bed seem to resemble the clouds drifting over the roof, and that is where I think part of me must travel to as I drift asleep. I dream of flying, lifting my feet off the ground and heading towards other planets, leaving Earth – this part is intentional, unlike my cloud bed, as at this point, I am aware that I am dreaming. I control my arms, my legs, my spirit as I choose to leave and explore what else is out there. The scent of my unlit Champagne and Strawberries candle that fills my room fades as I fall asleep. The air blown onto my body from my ceiling fan ceases to exist. The amethyst crystal that sits on my desk beside my bed somewhat resembles the distant purple planets that I hope to land on. I’ve always thought crystals look like they have come from space. As pretty as it is, the crystal has been collecting dust for quite some time; neglected, like I have neglected my surroundings in my mind, leaving my room behind. My dreams are so vivid that after I wake, I wonder if it is only my body that was present in my room. Is my soul separate from my brain? Is the universe in my mind purely an illusion, or could it be that I have really left my mind? Unlike my wooden bed frame, the sharp edges of the crystal and the soft bed sheets, my dream was not tangible…but could it be that it was real?

As the girl falls asleep, her mind and imagination go wild. Instantly transported to a surreal lucid dream she explores the different halls and forests to try and figure out where she is and how to wake up.
She is compelled to find a mysterious purple gem that may have the answer to all her questions.
Each location gradually gets more and more surreal and trippy making it harder to navigate the space.
The girl is fascinated and afraid of what she may see in this dream conjured up by her own imagination.
The halls flash various colours which is the only way to differentiate them from each other as they seem infinite otherwise. Once free from the infinite halls she finds herself floating above the building she was supposedly trapped in, then suddenly transported outside to the park, she must then explore this area where she may or may not find the gem she is looking for.
