I found myself standing at the edge of the pyramid, gazing out into the vast expanse of the forest. The pyramid was made up of large cubes of floating cyan water, and I had always found it fascinating how the builders had managed to keep it afloat. The city of Oz lay below, and from where I stood, I could hear the sound of music emanating from the Gigantic Tower of Layris. It was a daily ritual at midnight, and everyone in the city would come together to pray.

As I stood there lost in thought, I heard a faint voice calling out for help. I turned around to see a woman in distress. I rushed towards her, but as I got closer, I realized it was just a butterfly mimicking the sound of a human voice. I couldn't help but chuckle at how convincing it sounded.

But then, as I was petting the butterfly, I noticed movement behind me. I turned around to find a gigantic chameleon lurking in the shadows. Its eyes were fixated on me, and I knew I was in trouble.

Instinctively, I reached for my Caterpillar, a creature that we use to hunt moths and butterflies. It was like a camel, and we could sit on its back and equip it with weapons to hunt. I quickly mounted my Caterpillar, ready to defend myself against the chameleon.

The chameleon charged at me with ferocity, but I managed to dodge its attack. It was a fierce battle, and I could feel my adrenaline pumping through my veins. My sharp teeth were bared, and I fought with all my might to defend myself.

After what seemed like hours, the chameleon finally gave up and retreated into the shadows. I let out a sigh of relief, grateful to be alive. I had heard stories of Edeners who had fallen prey to these gigantic monsters, and I knew I had narrowly escaped death.

As I made my way back to the city, I couldn't help but think about the strange world we lived in. The trees were green, and the animals were colored in rainbow fur. The sand that covered the continent was dark tim, and the sea reflected the color of the sun. The Edeners had a cyan colored blood running through their veins, which they called the blood of the sun. And we lived only on a diet of butterfly, vegetation, and moths.

I couldn't help but marvel at the pyramids we lived in, made up of cubes of floating cyan water. They were a wonder of engineering, and I often wondered how our ancestors had managed to build them.

As I approached the city, I noticed the day workers cleaning the pyramids. They would swim into the water cubes to get the dead creatures out of the pyramids. It was a tough job, but someone had to do it.

I also noticed the Gigantic Tower of Layris, which stood tall in the center of the city. It was a magnificent structure, and the sound of the music that emanated from it could be heard throughout the city. It was a daily ritual, and everyone in the city would come together to pray.

As I walked through the city, I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was amiss. The chameleon attack had left me shaken, and I couldn't help but wonder if there were more dangerous creatures lurking in the shadows.
