A Quiet, Lonely World...

This world is composed of an island that exists above and around a dragon containedin crystal, at the base of a twisting cave. Upon the island grows several trees.
It was my intentions to have the viewer begin upon the top of the island, to explore their way down and out. Discovering the dragon, and the outer ring that serves to support the island. Perhaps riding the platform down to the sandy island in the sea, only to return again to the top, after pleasing their curiosity.
It is only after doing this exploration that the emptiness of this landscape becomes so full, as there is nothing else to inspire a sense of life. No motions, no sounds, only the quiet otherness of the landscape itself. The only life that can be found are trees, and a single creature, the dragon, who is contained inside rock.
