This is the final repeat of chapters sent previously to members, and this one remains largely unchanged from the previous version. Largely. There are extra images that were newly added to round out the story (but not Laura petting a rhino, so I included it here) and the ending was tweaked to better reflect what is in store. If your finger is in a cast and you have frustratingly been unable to click the link to read the last two sentences of the chapter, I’m reprinting them here.
“In just days, the abject horror of being stuck at the bottom of a latrine for days would sound refreshingly preferable as Laura and I unknowingly were about to enter the most terrifying time of our lives. For cloaked in dazzling, distracting sequins—his hot breath singeing away any kindling of hope, his curled tail methodically sweeping away its last vestiges—lurked the devil.”
Yup, it’s gonna get hairy. Think a cross between a Wookiee and painter Bob Ross of PBS fame. That hairy. Be active, stay fit, and keep exploring!
