Don't ask. For your sake, if not my own. More updates coming soon!

They say death is quick and painless.

I certainly found it to be like that.

I found myself on a pier. It was sunset, the sky streaked with orange and red. At the far end of the dock, looking out over the sea, was a young man with blonde hair.

My young man with blonde hair.

My Link.

As if he sensed my presence, he turned to me and smiled.

"I've been waiting a long time for you."

He held out his hand.

"Are you ready?"

I took his hand, and we stepped onto a small sailboat that was swaying gently in the water.

As he undid the ropes, I took one last look at the shore.

"Saying goodbye to the end?"

I shook my head and smiled.

"Saying goodbye to the beginning."

He gave the pier a hearty kick, and the small boat drifted away, slowly gathering speed.

"Where to Milady?"

I felt a tear slide down my cheek.

"Into the sunset, like we always dreamed."

I thought I had more for that, I guess I don't.

This is positively RIDDLED with metaphors (not sure if I typed riddled correctly, but whatever).

If anyone can guess where they are and what they are, you get a COOKIE!

Not-so-subtle hint: Ropes.
