                            Then skies churned angrily above me. The clouds the darkest shade of black, coinciding with a terrifyingly threatening noise from the sky above. I hiked up my dress and ran for the village. The wind whipped at my hair ferociously, threatening to knock me down then pull me into the air, locked away in the stormy skies forever. I stumbled, desperately trying to see through the wind and the rain. The noise of the storm rang painfully, hectically, in my ears creating chaos for my mind. I ran for the cover of the forest. I ducked under a trees great outstretching branch and the startling sounds of the storm were muffled. I took some time to straighten out my dress and fix my hair. I was sopping wet and cold. Looking around at the tree sheltering me i noticed how big it actually was. It's roots extended about 25 feet from the 7 foot trunk. How had i never seen this tree before? Surely i'd know of a tree this size. Whilst scanning the tree i noticed a small nook carved into this  biggest branch of the tree. Inside the nook there was a small object, nestled within the moss and leaves. I reached out my hand, now brittle and shaking, to grab the small, shiny, object. While i'd managed to get the object into my hands i'd also managed to discover a string that had been attached to it.

                         I had to tear my eyes from the object as the... sun? was warming my shoulder. I figure the storm must have had ended while i'd been distracted. I pulled apart the branches of what was now, to my surprise a willow tree. The rolling hills and forests had vanished before my eyes and were quite drastically replaced with a sandy shore with multiple harbors and pools along the beaches. Each pool had at least 3 girls swimming in it. Each girl wore shameful clothing. They'd all dressed in their undergarments and had nappy hair like a bird's nest! All these sights and thoughts so preposterous to my mind that suddenly everything went dark and the world slipped from under my feet. 

                             I awoke quite comfortably, yet confused. My vision was still black although i'd been conscious. I appeared to be in a small, damp... SACK?! I kicked and panicked, screaming my throat to near bleeding.
