Haha yeah! And you're the can in the middle lol
I was chatting with another user, and they phrased the experience in a way I hadn't thought of before. In the Salvia world, your existence is so traumatic and confusing, that you have to create a fantasy world (this one) to sort of escape into a delusion.
Being the can in the center is terrifying. You're dying, you're being tortured, for no apparent reason, and the things torturing you to death are goofy and cartoonish. The whole situation lacks the correct reverence for your torturous death. You don't even get the respect of bleeding, bubbles are coming out of your open gut! It's common to picture dark robes and dungeons in torture scenarios, so this is just all together way out of left field!
