As Sam reached out to make the mental connection, those who elected to follow along with her would be pulled into absolute bedlam.
This mindscape was trying (and failing) to put itself back together again. It had a 'ground', but the look of it kept switching over. Poured concrete flooring with a white epoxy coating, hardwood, a grassy meadow, poured concrete flooring with a white epoxy coating, asphalt, a frozen lake, cobblestone, poured concrete flooring with a white epoxy coating. That last one kept coming back into rotation.
Likewise, the environment around them changed, but not in a sequenced way with the ground. Endless blue sky over poured concrete flooring with a white epoxy coating, city-scape over a grassy meadow, an airport interior over a frozen lake, a picturesque village over poured concrete flooring with a white epoxy coating, a small, cramped, padded room with extremely low lighting, and one mirrored wall over a frozen lake, a beautiful, tree dabbled English meadow over poured concrete flooring with a white epoxy coating.
Objects too kept popping in and out. A bed, rows of public seating, trash cans and cars, a bed, birds and insects, a bed, bicycles in a row.
It was all a bit disorienting. Good thing then that nausea was really more of a physical response.
