FIG-Explore the beach
From Create Your Own Story
Your tattered shirt covers you enough to be decent, but not enough to protect you from the overbearing power of the sun. You stand and retie the cord belt holding up the ragged remains of your pants. Whoever wrote that a kind could survive a shipwreck fully clothed and uninjured was obviously incorrect in his assumption. This seems not like the beginning of an exciting adventure, but the beginning of a struggle for survival. You finger-comb you hair out of your face with a sigh.
You decide to search the beach. Hopefully you'll find someone or something you recognize that will give you some clues about your past. The hot sand burns your bare feet and you know you'll have to find shoes or something soon. For now, kelp will have to do. As you sit on the rocky edge of a tide pool, wrapping your feet in long strands of wet kelp, something shiny catches your eye in one of the larger tide pools close to the sea. At the same time, you hear what sounds like a cry for help coming from somewhere to your right on the other side of the tide pools. What should you do? The incoming tide will soon prevent you from seeing whatever shiny object is in the tide pool below you, but the person who's calling for help might be injured or in danger. The shiny object might hold a clue to your past, but the mystery person might also jog your memory.
What do you choose?
