It's the end of a world, as we know it...

"...Anybody out there?" I type, but I already know it's pointless. There's nobody anywhere near me. For almost an hour, I've been wandering around a desolate plain: Gray clouds scud slowly over rough quartz mountains, while a few birds wheel in the air near mushroom-shaped trees. I never see another living soul. It feels like the end of the world...."
I haven't tried Asheron's Call and it seems I never will. But it does feel kind of lonely to walk the ground of an empty world as this person did.
