The Ego Death of Egoimane
It was the year 4000 in the land of Egoimane. The sun had not shined there as the murky, gray clouds covered the sky and dimmed the entire city. The city was a dark place where the weather always seemed as if it was awaiting a storm. Although the storm never came, it left everyone tired and in a monotonous routine. No birds were singing to greet the morning. All the livestock had died off and left them with the grim remains of what used to be. The people hardly ever knew the difference between night and day or seasons for the matter. It smelled of filth and radioactive goo throughout the city. In the center were a wasteland and an unearthly scientific laboratory that polluted the air of harsh chemicals and disposed of toxic waste. As Cindy 543 went to grab her jumpsuit to prepare to accept her assignment for the day, she had a nostalgic feeling overcome her. She had remembered a dream from the night before while she was awake. She saw colors that were beautiful and vibrant. It was a community with parents and their children existing in bliss. They were singing and holding hands with each other. It had to be another world that was far away from this one. Music was forbidden in the land of Egoimane by its government. The higher-ups claimed that music was an evil sound that took over your mind. Cindy had always been afraid to hear such a thing. So, when she heard it in her dream, she was confused because it made her smile and feel safe. She wondered if this happened before and if it would happen again. What could such an encounter mean? Cindy began to think harder about what she saw. Before she could finish analyzing what she had experienced the previous night, she heard a knock at her door. The voice yelled, "OPEN UP!" Cindy rushed to open her door and quickly realized that it was her friend David333. She seemed frightened by the knock, which was unlike her. He laughed but then quickly noticed that something was bothering Cindy.
