Its Vicious Hold
The system weaves its tendrils deeply into every facet of our lives. We are subtly conditioned to accept its parameters, eagerly following the path it prepares.

Life on the Inside The Grind
The walls are always there. You can’t get away from them. They're a constant weight of your situation. Days melt into weeks, then months, each one feeling like the last. Time slows down. There are routines, small rituals that help you survive with the monotony. Meals at specific times, headchecks, yard time when it's allowed. You learn to find solace in the ordinary. A clean cell, a hot shower – these become your victories. You build relationships with cellmates, finding comfort in shared experiences. You have to be street smart of the power dynamics, the unwritten rules that govern life inside. There’s always a threat lurking – violence, manipulation, or simply the crushing boredom. But sometimes, against all odds, there are moments of beauty. A shared joke, a spontaneous song, a quiet conversation that speaks volumes. These fleeting glimpses of humanity remind you that even in this concrete prison from the outside, there is still hope.

The moon casts long glimmers across the sprawling landscape, casting light upon remnants of a world longpassed. Each fragment uncovered is a incomparable clue to the puzzle of this vanished world.
A feeling of wonder permeates in the air, reminding us that even in loss, there are glimmers of a magnificent past.
