Arphee; The Arival

After a few minutes of persistent stumbling he had reached a snow ridden dirt path and rejoiced, after being lost for days the achievement was a beacon of hope- vision blurred, tired beyond all hope- he journeyed forth.

The scent of food and burning wood became stronger as he continued down the path- the snow slowly dissipating, he could hear peoples voices in the distance, he was finally there.

He took his last few steps towards the hillside reaching his arm forward, he could feel himself slipping in and out of consciousness.

His vision blurred and he fell unconcious amidst the snow, for now he would rest, and hope for his sake, fortune may smile apon him.

Hours had passed since he had blacked out, and his body once cold, now felt like it was on fire. He slowly opened his eyes squinting at the sunlight, "Where am i? What...Happened" he thought to himself.
