Dressed in casual dark blue jeans and a greying white top, Marcus stands on top of a mountain as it floats high in the sky. Staring out into a light blue void that surrounds everything. No land or sea can be seen and although it appears to be daytime, there is no sun. A train revolves around the base of the hill, circling it in a never-ending loop.
