The sun of the Upper Zone didn't ask for permission to come in, it simply flooded Lohan's suite through the panoramic windows of his bedroom, letting the soft golden light settle over the silk sheets, completely unlike the dark, cold room in the Lower Zone he used to live in.
Lohan woke up with an incredible mental clarity, feeling that his sleep got even better each day. With his mind clearer and more fluid after each evolution, the amount of sleep needed to rest kept decreasing while the quality of that sleep only kept rising.
His body no longer felt the weight of gravity as oppressively as when he was thin and weak, on the contrary, now every muscle fiber seemed to be in a state of vibrant readiness, even right after waking up from a night's sleep.
He got up and walked to the inner balcony of his penthouse, watching the clouds floating below the level of his apartment.
