The darkness of the mine, the darkness of my mind: the two became one and indivisible. I did not sleep, however. Of that I'm sure. In the stillness, my consciousness became highly attenuated, that's all. But even this attenuated consciousness was one part real world in ten parts water. As diluted as I became, it never quite disappeared.
