You are on a bridge a meter above a fast moving river. Thick steel frames with large rivets suspend the bridge. A pair of shoes dangle from a cross beam above. Power lines run to the side of the bridge. There is an abandoned van.
Water-logged debris idly bob or float by in the river.
- Each one moves after their unseen quarry, the man in the boat. Many step on corpses long forgotten, which rise. Those buried in mud crawl, the shoreline becoming alive. Some come from the woods, hidden there during your innocuous drive south.
Since your last turn:
- • Groans and gurgles, a nearing chorus, resonate from the east. (4 seconds ago)
Possible actions:
- Hope they pass
Inventory:
- You carry only a whistle, a bent knife and a smashed radio. It has been a long ride. Your blue jeans are shredded; the T-shirt, stretched 2 sizes larger, is more red than white, and your shoes are unaccounted for. Overtop it all you wear a yellow rain jacket. Perched atop your head is a crumpled paper party hat.
