You open up your eyes and find yourself laying down in a field of grass whilst a gentle breeze washes over. You can't remember when and how you got here nor why you're here. You stand up and look around in a daze as the zephyr slowly fades, in the horizon as you look you see a village so you decide to try and go there unknowing of the danger that lies ahead.

Each step you take you get closer and closer to the village, you have nothing else to do but to follow the road. In the middle of your path towards the village the sky begins to dim as you begin to feel the warm zephyr turn cold, you notice clouds arriving up above blocking the sun as you feel the cold wind. You feel a droplet of water and so you decide to seek a nearby place to shelter you from the upcoming rain.

*Drizzle*

*Drizzle*

As you find a nearby overhang you hear the raindrops slowly drop more and more. The rain had started. You waited for a while but yet the rain seemed to get stronger over time. The cold air and the smell of dampness and dirt, it felt refreshing but yet you know won't last long if this continues. Sounds of thunder can be heard faintly while you're thinking, first it was faint but yet as you waited, and you waited, and waited, it didn't seem to stop anytime soon. The roaring winds, bright lightning and loud thunders along with the smell of raindrops. You needed to find a better shelter.

You traverse through the muddy grass and the strong winds as you look for better a shelter. A tempest of wind tries to pull you down. You persevere and walk, walking against the winds, walking and walking until you find shelter. On the path you notice a forest nearby and so you decide to run towards it for cover.

*Rustling Leaves*

*Cold Breeze*

Inside the forest you run desperately seeking shelter from the storm. You look left and right until you find a cavern, moving swiftly you take cover inside and you wait until the storm finally ends. Due to your tiredness of running you slept through the intense thunderstorm inside the cavern as you entered it and now you have woken up. You check outside if it was clear to go out, and after, through the never ending trees, through the slippery grass drenched in water, you decide to march once more and advance towards the village but not before picking up berries to ensure you have enough food during the long walk.

Walking once more you persevere through the muddy and eroded ground that came to be after the storm. You walk for minutes, and those minutes turned to hours, then the hours turns to a day. You are extremely tired you don't know how long can you last anymore, walking and walking until.

You arrived at the village

After all the time spent on walking you finally arrived at the village. You saw people and it fills you with happiness knowing there are others in this world, but yet before you can celebrate, due to the stress and fatigue that was piled up on your body during the walk you felt dizzy and fell unconscious.

*Faint Mumbling*

"H-ey"

"Are y-- al-ight?"
