Another wrong step

As if nothing had changed overnight, the warrior takes another wrong step and dives once again into the abyss. Ghosts provoke, loneliness torments him. Now that he is more aware of his acts, he did not think this would happen.

But it did. Shrouded by darkness, he talks to his master.
- “Master, I fell again into the abyss “, he says.” The waters are deep and dark”.
- “Remember something “, responds the master. "It is not the diving that causes the drowning, but the staying underwater."

The warrior uses his remaining strength to get out of the situation he is in.
