Shadowgate
Adjusting your garments, you cross the vast cavern floor to the river banks. The knee deep water pounds savagely into the blasting current.
With a rocky step, you test the water. You note that it is extremely cold, but the pressure of the water is not as harsh as it is on your eyes. Submerging your once dry feet into the foaming river, you steadily begin wading out towards the opposing isle.
Checking for loose stones with every footing, you narrow your eyes as water splashes over your head through the waist deep pool.
A sudden slip sweeps you into the murky depths. Dragged through the white slashing current, you flail and gasp for breath. Thrashing against a jagged rock you attempt a futile grab at the boat as you sweep past it. You hurtle downwards as water surges into your body. A mouthful of ice cold fluid seeps into your lungs. Pain rattles your chest and you inhale for relief. Your wracked body smashes fruitlessly against the stone ground as you ceaselessly tumble towards the open depths.
