After consummation. The mighty riverbed almost tears the meat from the bones. Don’t look back… The inner truth. Self explanatory, magnetic and persuasive

The group I had picked before I forgot was the penguins. I thought about it for a while, and I realized that they were probably the most peaceful and idyllic creatures on the planet. And, for that reason, I thought they would be the perfect group for my strange and surprising story.

So, I went to the penguin colony and introduced myself. I told them about my story and what I wanted them to do. The penguins were hesitant at first, but I assured them that they would be safe and that nothing bad would happen.

After a few minutes of discussion, the penguins agreed to help me. They would be my fake audience. They would be the ones who would see the story through to the end.

The next day, I took them on a tour of the riverbed. I showed them the giant boulders and the rapids. I showed them the giant anacondas and the cobras. I showed them the giant sharks and the giant eels.

But, most importantly, I showed them the giant humans.

The penguins were horrified. They were disgusted. They were scared.

But, eventually, they came to understand my story. They saw the parallels between my story and their own lives. They saw how my story was a metaphor for the world they lived in.

And, in the end, they were able to see the truth.

The truth was that the mighty riverbed was rotten. The earth was crumbling. The humans were destroying everything.

And, in the end, the penguins were the only ones who could save the world.
