Every morning, I pray I'll wake up in my own bed. But no: I'm back in that forest, pelted by rain, condemned to live the same day over and over until I can atone for my sin. Behind me a beast snarls; to my right, a twig snaps. And I'm running. On cue, the rumble of thunder—but this time, I whirl and swing up, and catch the beast between its armoured plates. I'm winning, oh god, at last, winning, and my world shimmers almost into reality before my eyes... and the dialog box pops up: "OnePassword Helper Unexpectedly Quit." Blackness... and then rain, wet leaves, and the forest again.Every morning, I pray I’ll wake up in my own bed.
