Unfortunately each time this has caused extreme nausea and hot flashes within 30-45 minutes. Severe enough that I&#39;m forced to lie down. I think I&#39;ll stick with aspirin from now on. At least if it fails and I get the headache, I can still keep working through it.

I definitely wanted to include the twisted redstone door frame and the glass columns. Initially I tried using a human silhouette as the shadow but it didn&#39;t look right. Then I got the idea of a black sun rising. I was also initially gonna have one of the glass columns be the &#34;4&#34; but I think it looks better with just four columns.
