A Voyage to Arcturus

The protagonist awakens in a vast, eerie forest, transformed with a third eye on his forehead and a nerveless third arm. Confused and disoriented, he struggles to find his bearings amidst the colossal trees and the absence of familiar landmarks. The atmosphere is surreal, evoking a sense of being in a supernatural realm. As he grapples with his situation, he hears mysterious drum beats in the distance, prompting an instinctive decision to follow the sound, despite his uncertainty about its source or significance.
