Trailing After Destiny

You decide to put something else in. Like that spider over there on that rock. He's totally going in. You walk over to the rock and prod the spider with your stick. You hear a sizzling. To your surprise, the spider seemingly melts when it comes into contact with your stick. Is it a magical stick? No, stupid. It's the fact that your stick is still wet from the stream. Looking at your stick with new regard, you wonder what you should do next.
