Re: Magnus in Madtown
Fighting the water, and feeling as if its winning, you get to the edge, and scramble up, slip, fall, go under the choppy, rising water, but gasping, hardly able to see, push yourself back up, and try again.
And you force yourself up five more feet, and you're trying to force yourself to try some further, when you realize that the water has stopped rising. No, its still going up, but slowly, maybe an inch every ten seconds.
You feel as if you were encased in lead, your sopping wet clothes are so heavy, and your eyes are filled with water, and you're spitting put water, and your nose burns from the inside, and it requires continual focus to simply stand here and not fall over.
But you're alive!
