[ WP ] You possess an ability to turn off one or more of your senses to heighten the others . Today is the day you make a mistake .

Silence. Darkness. Unbeing. 
 
 You know how sometimes you feel that sense of worry? That sense of dread? It's diluted in us, now. A throwback to a time when we feared the night and the snapping of jaws. Before we were masters of all we surveyed. 
 
 When I learned of my abilities I was quick to put them to use in pursuing a world I would not otherwise have dreamed of. People always think of the five senses, but there are so many more. Have you heard of the kinesthetic sense? It's how you know you're holding your hand in front of you, even when your eyes are closed. 
 
 I mastered it in a way no other human could. How about the sense of time? With both of those I did n't always need to hear, or smell, or taste, or feel. I pursued bad men to far places, led by my nose. Nobody expects to be _sniffed_ out. And goddamn, I made a fortune doing it. 
 
 But every time, every time, this fear would return. This _fear_. Until I'd clamp it down and feel my focus sharpen as the fear dissipated. 
 
 But then I wondered. Why? Only one way to know. I left everything behind. 
 
 There's a beating heart at the center of this world. A drum beat with no rhythm and no order. Something writhes in the dark, not in pain or pleasure but in pure being, and I can _feel_ it now. 
 
 I think it felt me too.
