Aeon stood at the edge of the cube he was "standing" on. It was a strange thing to see Amethyst and Eximo on the side of the cube, seemingly defying gravity, but he was sure there was a reasonable explanation.
Aeon stepped off the side of the cube. At first he fell normally, but as soon as his foot touched the side, his gravity shifted and he stood at the same orientation with Amethyst, nearly losing his balance.
Amethyst paused for a moment, looked at her armband, and back at Aeon. "It seems that as soon as you come into contact with a surface, your gravitational perspective shifts to whatever orientation that surface is." She looked upwards, where she fell from a few moments ago. "However, the surrounding space of the cubes do not have a specific gravitational direction of their own. Whatever direction you fall in seems to correlate to the orientation of the surface you last touched. Our captors seem to have quite an understanding of spacial geometry."
Aeon looked around, noticing the emptiness of the field. "That means that there are no hiding places. No position is any safer than the others. It also makes everywhere a perfect spot for an ambush." he said. "What else have you found about this place?"
"There is a source of white energy--healing power--somewhere in here. However, neither my nor Eximo's sensors are able to determine where it is from. I have concluded that the source is outside of this three-dimensional plane."
I knew this place had more to it. "Then there is more to this place than we can see. Think about it. Whatever people are behind all this know that we will be able to sense something like this. Obviously they want us to know it, or else nothing would show up. My guess is that at a certain position in this field--maybe a certain cube--will act as some sort of portal that opens to another area, where that energy source likely is. If we can-"
"WHAT THE HELL?! SINCE WHEN WERE YOU ABLE TO WALK ON WALLS?!"
Aeon and Amethyst turned in unison to see Lutherion, hovering sideways a few cubes away from them.
"Well so much for an ambush," Aeon muttered.
