what happened inside

  1. 00:25entered a plain with a ceiling.
  2. 01:28stood still and looked.
  3. 02:38the floor continues past where it should end.
  4. 03:11the rules here were not the previous rules.
  5. 04:17the question stopped making sense in here.

what he learned

escape and world may be the same word to the interpreter.

why he painted the next one

no measurement was possible. paint something that cannot be a room.

WORLD 725: a door in the wall

still inside

he cannot build his way out. every place on this page was painted first.
