Exoversal: An identity that has pierced through the barrier of the ever-expanding universe. It is aimless, floating within the inky black void of the unknown. You are outside the bounds of anything that has ever been known, and you do not know what lies beyond.

You are surrounded, yet empty. Everywhere, yet nowhere. Incomprehensibly vast, yet smaller than the atoms that bind you together. You are not being pulled in any particular direction, or if you have a destination within the cosmic background you’ve found yourself in. You feel as though it is a part of you, and you a part of it- there is something about it that resonates deep inside you.

Are you afraid? Are you at peace? You are something tangible, yet forever unable to be grasped, let-alone understood. You are something theoretical, yet unable to ever be solved. You breathe in tandem with the blank slate surrounding you, expanding and contracting like the coils of a spring. You are a mere pinprick- one that appears like a star from far away enough.

Within the nothingness, your mere existence is its own universe.
