The Better Place

I woke up on a tiny island. It was very peaceful. I looked around to see small woods behind me and I was standing on a small beach. In the distance there was another island. I walked into the water to see that it was very cold but it didn’t make me feel uncomfortable. I walked further out to see that it suddenly dropped off vertically. I sank down into the depths of the sea until my feet struck the soft white clean sand bottom. I realized that I didn’t need air and didn’t have to breathe. The bottom of the sea was well lit and very clear. I could see mountains in the distance. There were round objects nearby that looked like a combination of rocks and eggs.
I swam back up to the top. I walked back onto the beach and into a small wood. There was a boat. I decided to step into it and push off. I had one oar that worked very well. There were pyramids floating silently past me in the air and then into the distance.
I got to the next island. The ground was very different. It was orange- brown and featureless except for its skin-like texture. Stepping onto it was like stepping onto the back of a reptilian animal. Perhaps this thing was a creature and not land at all. There were pore/ holes here and there about six inches wide that blew out air every so often.
I walked across it to the other side to see another island in the distance. This one was shimmering bright white much unlike the one I was standing on. Another pyramid floated past me, this one very close to me. I reached for it and missed it.
I got into the boat and discovered that if I push off, it would keep moving under its own power and all I had to do was steer. As I grew closer to the island I could hear musical tones and these were in sync with the lights that flashed on and off in hundreds of different colors. Not just primary and secondary, but hundreds of completely different colors. I decided to move on. I didn’t want to disturb the great balance of activity there so I steered past it.
Now I could see a glowing line in the water that went to the horizon. I was a sort of path in the water. When I steered into it the boat began to speed up very rapidly.

Two more pyramids floated past me.

The musical island faded into the background as I approached a huge pylon jutting out from the water. This must have been some sort of hub for the pyramids because three of the pyramids stopped and hovered over the half mile high structure and then descended inside of it. It was maroon and made of shiny metal. I managed to steer around it but was still on the path toward the horizon.

Now I could see something in the distance. It was a strange white line going across the entirety of the horizon. As I rapidly approached it I could see that it was steps. They were four steps high and eternally wide. The boat slowed and then barely bumped to a stop at the ivory white steps. I stepped out and onto the the steps and walked to the top.

Evidently this is where the ocean ended. All I saw was white shiny flat ground in all directions except behind me. I figured I should simply walk straight ahead and began to notice something. There was a round hoop-like object off to the distant left. I appraoched it and began to hear a humming noise as if there was some sort of power inside it. I saw a panel in front of it with several flat membrane
