You cough bile and seawater onto the rocky shore, until eventually your lungs recall that you are dead and breathing is mere habit. But the sensation of water sloshing around in their is unpleasant enough to spend a little longer voiding them all the same.
It seems you've washed up surrounded by corpses - some you recognize as fellow prisoners. Not all have woken. Perhaps some won't.
The sun is a bright, distant dot and while you fancy it should be hot, the wind is cold. Clouds gather on the horizon.
Up the shore, squatting on mossy rocks amid coarse grasses, is a small town. Silent. Empty, it looks like, though smoke still rises from one or two chimneys.
