   Summary

   Shadow woke.

   Because of course he did.

   Joy.

   He woke up gagging on water and vomiting up onto the shoreline he’d been unceremoniously deposited onto. A mercy, all things considered, that the water would so gently lay him ashore when it’d so mercilessly bashed him against every rock imaginable beforehand. He could have cried in relief, and if a few salty streaks ran down his cheek despite himself then…then there wasn’t a soul around to tell of his weakness.

   Everything still hurt.

   Worse, actually, than it did before.

   If it were possible.

   . . .

   Shadow would like to rest.

   Knuckles will not let him.
