disoriented - Story 30765 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The ground seemed to move beneath her feet. The familiar shape of the old pine, a constant in her life, was completely missing. She stumbled backward, as though physically repelled. Her breath came in short, shallow gasps. A wave of nausea swept over her, and she had to lean against the cold, rough bark of another tree, struggling to maintain her balance. It felt as though someone had rearranged the world while she wasn't looking. She wanted to scream, but no sound would come.
