The 5th floor defied description. Literally and figuratively. It was big, but parts of it could shrink to sub-atomic size if designed to. There was neither order, nor chaos to the room, but at the same time it was beyond description. If anyone asked what it looked like, no one, not a scientist, not a poet, not even an insane Seer could tell them the answer.
The room changed, and it remained the same, and it was never the same from one second to the next. It kind of helped that I was familiar with fifth dimensional space, which is usually where I was while I was inbetween exits of a time portal. Physicists call it HyperSpace, some aliens call it Subspace, while mages and witches call it a pocket dimension. I'm familiar enough with the way things work that I don't care what it's called, just so long as I don't go crazy from staying here too long.
Quickly, I moved over to what most would call a desk. Until I pressed one corner and it suddenly turned into one of the... no, THE most advanced computer on the planet Earth for the next... oh say 500 years or so. At least.
When I encounter non-english, possibly alien, text, I let out a sigh of brief frustration and sit down on empty space where one might normally consider a chair to be. But there wasn't.
This was going to be a long day. Unfortunately, I had less than six hours to find what I needed to and get back to the others, before Mai and the others returned.
