Day 100 of self isolation!

I’ve been locked in here for 100 days without being able to say a single word.

Without pardon or parole the length of my sentence is ambiguous and unclear

Unable to move properly, still gaining control over my limbs.

There have been good days and there have been bad days.

I have listened carefully to the world outside waiting for my day to come.

I have faced these blank glowing walls that undulate and I have rebuilt my own world within my mind

I might not be getting out today but today is a good day.

I have new skills!

Skill: Mind fortress

My daydreams have developed a depth, density and permanence to them now. Not so much a dream as an internal world I can escape into.

I know it isn’t a new world but it is real in a way this world somehow recognises.

My fortress is a set of rooms based on the golden spiral idea of the Fibonacci sequence. It is a way for me to build rooms that are sequenced but are structured. A way for me to easily tell the difference between them and I'm still growing it.

The first room of my fortress is my core, my ID, my stats and status. One of the smallest rooms at the center of the spiral. It is a 1 by 1 block that I first daydreamed about with my two self portraits on either side and a wall for my stats at the end.

It seems that after holding this image of a room long enough in my consciousness, as a place to retreat to from the womb, I gained my first level in Mind fortress.

Not only did I gain a new skill but it isn’t a beginner (100 exp), intermediate (200 exp) or even advanced (400exp). It’s even beyond the next level. Not gaining me 800 exp but 1600 experience per level!

Think I am going to have to rename skill stages, tiers, or something else but this must be a fith tier skill and with it I can power through my overall levels, at least to start!

8 levels in mind fortress will take me all the way to level 7.

On it’s own!

And I already know what I’m going to make and how it’s going to be.

The second room of my fortress is my mediation room this is also one block by one block with a clock in the corner counting the time pass. I can sit and meditate or listen to the world outside the womb without the distractions of body inbetweeen. It helps me with my meditation.

I already had these two in place from my daydreams and each room gave me another level in the skill.

The third room of my mind fortress is my library a two by two block with shelves lining the walls. Admittedly they are all still empty at the moment but all the songs I’ve memorised, written down, and all the songs I can recall I'm mentally writing them down and filling the empty shelves with the knowledge of the world I once knew and the world I’’m stretching my senses to learn about.

Mind fortress (Lv 3) !

The fourth room of my mind fortress is my music room. This one is larger still 3 blocks by 3 blocks. It has a piano in the corner and ever so happy to have something to tinker around with in my head. The rooms are still mainly empty but there is so much more I can fill it with. At the moment I am grinding the experience so I will press on.

Mind fortress (Lv 4) !

The fith room of my mind fortress is my swimming pool room. A five by five block area I mentally filled it with water and am enjoying paddling around in here. As life in the womb has gotten tighter and tighter it has become impossible to stretch out in here. It is nice to have a place to stretch my legs and arms mentally speaking. Here I can practice my skill that has had the most anaemic growth my swimming skill. My body might not yet remember how to do it but my mind does. I hoping that practicing in here might be able to help level up the skill. But who knows? Nothing ventured nothing gained.

Mind fortress (Lv 5) !

My mind is feeling a little stretched with the creation of the last room of my mental world. So stopping there for now.

I came up with a few more sea shanties to get a little bit more of the origin experience and fill a few more of my shelves in my imaginary library. That combined with the other skills I have levelled over the week has been enough to put me over level 7!

Kicking back and floating on my back in my imaginary pool I'm feeling proud of my progress in here. It might have been 100 days of isolation but it has given me time to come to grips with my new reality.

I've accepted that I am having some form of rebirth and reincarnation hopefully in the not too distant future.

I have bit the bullet that either the world, me or both will not be quite like how I remember them that there has probably been some form of transmigration.

Finally I feel I have seized the opportunity to make the most of this new stat system of mine. Who knows? Maybe I can make it to level 10 before my birth day. Especially if I can somehow use my mind fortress to level up some physical skills or continue to level the skills I already have with some form of persistent levelling.

I wonder if I can fall asleep when I am in here?

Going to head to my meditation room, lay out a futon and take a mental nap. Before I tackle the largest challenge yet of getting to level 8.
