~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have just awakened and been given this book. It is to be used
as a diary. I will try to write down all I can. Perhaps it will
help me discover who I am. I will start with the first day I can
remember...
I remember standing on the shore; the waves gently caress and
lick at my toes. I wonder how much longer it will be before the
storm reaches me. I see the wind throwing the waves into the
rocks. I hear her giggle gleefully at the foam as it trickles
down through crevices. Does the wind giggle that way when
the foam is red? The clouds tumble and roll above me; great
gray giants wrestling in their troubled blue ring. As the
weakest fell, newer, stronger, fiercer fighters came to replace
them. They growl and snarl at each other as they clash above
the sea. I wondered, as I watched, if your ship ever had any
chance out there. All other life has long-since abandoned the
beach. I consider turning back as well, forgetting you.
Ultimately, I cannot. I am shaking violently; I am cold and
tired. I can barely stand. The wind whips my long blonde hair
about me, as if she intends to hurl me into the ocean. I taste
the rainwater as it mixes with my salty tears. I feel the painful
pin-pricks of millions of cold raindrops drenching me. As the
waters rise, giant waves are formed. They leap and grab for me,
but continue to fall short. The bitterness of terror has
overtaken all my senses; I can feel nothing else. I run nearer
the waves; one almost claims me...but I falter. The next wave is
tall enough; it will surely reach me. Suddenly, all light and
land is swept away from me...or am I swept away from it? I
reach for some stability, and can find none. I have finally
come to the surface again. My breath is quick and unstable. I
swallow a bit of air before I am pulled back under. I turn
somersaults through the water. As I flip upwards, I feel a sharp
pain. Everything goes dark...

Okay, that's it for the Prologue...hope you liked it. Thanks for reading...later days!
