There's a window open on the third floor.

Hmm. That could be somewhat difficult for me to reach in my present state.
I look for a rope or something to climb on or something like that. Is there anything useful near me?
Anyone should answer.

You see a frayed, icy rope which looks as thin as a string. It's better then nothing, though.

I guess so.
I toss it up so it loops around the window's latch and start climbing awkwardly, my legs dangling and numb.
Does anything happen before I reach the window?
Anyone should answer.

About 5 feet to the window, the rope snaps in a spray of ice amd you fall back down.
(fun fact: if you fall more than 2 stories you generally break stuff)

Aagh! But enough's broken already! (That's all I have time to think as I fall.)
Okay, what do I break this time?
Anyone should answer.

Your neck.

Uh oh.
Am I dead immediately, or only paralyzed?
Anyone should answer.

(not gonna answer, let's have chwoka do this one)


RE: A Doomed Pilgrim in the Ruins of the Future - ☆ C.H.W.O.K.A ☆ - 05-08-2014

Paralyzed, comatose, and perfectly cryogenically frozen for the benefit of future generations.


RE: A Doomed Pilgrim in the Ruins of the Future - SeaWyrm - 05-09-2014

Before I slip into the coma, what is the very last thing I see?
Anyone should answer.


RE: A Doomed Pilgrim in the Ruins of the Future - icanhasdonut - 05-09-2014

Ice .

The vision of ice fills my consciousness before everything fades away - and thus my journey ends.

THE END.

Ah - there you go, a lovely doom. Well played, everyone!
