◈ Bridge of Oblivion
The first arena is a representation of the desolated afterlife.
A lonely tomb close to being submerged by the fog and the sand. That’s why the atmosphere is a mix between death's symbols like the pyramid and desaturated color, to remind the disappearing life.

◈ Nile dam
It is a representation the heavenly vision of the afterlife.
The oasis is a source of life in the deadly desert. That’s why the atmosphere is a mix between blue tones to remind water, lush vegetation and light structure.
