This is the start of a little interactive game, right here on the steem-blockchain. Actually, it's the second post: in the starting post I asked to pick your favourite painting and jot three words alongside in the comments. and
both chose a (the same) painting with their three words (quayside, lampposts and ships by
and blurry, trees and fog by
). which got the story/game going. Let's see how this interactive story/game continues...
Being Steel 34
This is it. I've reached the point where I can't go any further. Here, at this desolate harbor, I'm caught between the life I'm escaping and the blurry sea with the ships sailing off in the distance. This is it, and I have nowhere to go.
Well, yeah, I suppose I could go one step further, but walking over the quayside and drowning right here isn't why I have come here. I've got places to go, people to see!
Who am I kidding? I have nowhere to go, nobody to see. I have fled my house, having left everything behind. I'm lucky to have escaped, hiding along the way behind lampposts and trees, and if it hadn't been for that thick fog, the coppers would've gotten me in a New York minute.
Now I'm here: I'm broke, alone and on the run. My name? Doesn't matter anymore, but you can call me Steel. I'm being Steel. Now, what'd you think I should do?
1: Stay along the quayside, maybe something or somebody will turn up?
2: Take the plunge, maybe the sea will set me free?
Make a comment and choose your option how the story should continue: 1 or 2! The option with the most choices is how I will proceed with the story. Also, feel free to write three words, which I will include in the next chapter (which ideally will also feature a painting of mine to illustrate the story). I have no idea where this is going, but let's have some fun!
I'll upvote every valid comment as royally as I can in these low-steem days. The next chapter will come within 1 to 7 days - depending on how much time I find, I'm kinda busy!
Let's have some fun :)
