I woke up in some dry place in a...cave?! This place is actually beautiful. There is a light that shines through a small circular hole in the roof, allowing me to view my surroundings. The water is a nice vibrant hue of blue and I hear the crashing of the ocean waves around me.The cave walls ar- wait a second, how did I end up here anyway? Did I die? I don't think so. In my personal heaven, I would be sleeping all day. I look around to see if there are any clues as to where I ended up. I try to stand up, despite my wet clothes clinging on my skin. I should really change them before I get sick, but I don't have any spare clothes and I am definitely not walking around without them. God forbid, I run into some pervert like Archis.

I try to stand up and I am greeted with a throbbing headache. Ok, slowly now Kaaya, step by step. I feel like a toddler learning to walk for the first time again...so embarrassing. I hear a loud noise resonating through the cave...w-what was that? My legs wobble in fear and I will them to calm down. It sounded like some splashing as if someone just jumped into the water. I shiver involuntarily. There must be someone else here. I mentally curse at Archis for dragging me into this mess. When I face Archis again, he's dead...well at least his reputation is ...I don't think I can physically fight well...

Nonetheless, now I should worry about my current situation. My clothes are still drenched so I proceed to wring them out a bit. This will do. I am pretty sure if I had one of those modern cell phones, I would be able to contact someone for help. Oh well, it's not the time to dwell upon what I don't have. Instead, I look around to see if anything could be of use or see there is there anything that could tell me where I am.

I hear the same splashing noise once again. Ok, now I am starting to get creeped out. What if they are watching me at this moment? Am I over-exaggerating? I think not. I have had enough experience with the wild and unknown to know when danger is near.

I ponder upon on whether I should go check out what made the noise or should I just sit here. Well, if I just sit here, nothing is going to get accomplished, therefore exploring wins. Oh dear Gods, please bestow your blessings on this poor, dim-witted soul. With those words in mind, I start my exploration.
