I was walking across the riverbank when the gentle breeze soothed my unsteadiness, and my breathing eased. I walked slowly until I reached the end of the riverbank until I stopped to listen to the whispers of the sea urging me to walk towards it. Yet the trees begged me to stay away. But as I drifted away from the trees and got ever so closer to the sea, I fell into inescapable darkness. I realized I was now in the hands of fate to decide whether life or death.
