You will remember how I leaned forward and peered into the dark hole when I was stranded on the tiny island in the sea, and how I struck the tree with a limb on the shores of Lake Umquam Renatusum. Likewise, I again did something which would seem illogical and vain: in my frustration, I pushed the table that I happened to be standing against with as much force as I could muster. It slid softly along the carpeting before coming to a halt a few inches from the glass wall. YOU WILL REMEMBER HOW I LEANED FORWARD AND PEERED INTO THE DARK HOLE WHEN I WAS STRANDED ON THE TINY ISLAND IN THE SEA AND HOW I STRUCK THE TREE WITH A LIMB ON THE SHORES OF LAKE UNCOMB RENATISAM LIKEWISE I AGAIN DID SOMETHING WHICH WOULD SEEM ILLOGICAL AND VAIN IN MY FRUSTRATION I PUSHED THE TABLE THAT I HAPPENED TO BE STANDING AGAINST WITH AS MUCH FORCE AS I COULD MUSTER IT SLID SOFTLY ALONG THE CARPETING BEFORE COMING TO A HALT A FEW INCHES FROM THE GLASS WALL
ays stationed at the foot of the stairs, and many more between them and the temple entrance, and even if, by some miraculous intervention, I made it that far, that left me stranded conspicuously in the center of Nunami. My only hope was to escape from the island completely, for I would be found soon enough by the cooperating inhabitants if I remained upon their own lands. The land across the sea then entered my mind, and its degenerate inhabitants, but that was across a wide channel that would be hard to cross even if I had infinite time, freedom, and materials to make a boat which would withstand the waves, and I had none of the three. What little hope I had, then, was out of reach, lost to me like the golden days of the past. It was then that I was overcome by despondency, the hopelessness of my situation weighing my spirits down. It is a peculiar trait of mine that in times of distress and in situations that seem to have no possible favorable outcome I act rashly and without reason.
