[Poggio]

The water was unexpected. Robin did not cross the flowing stream in enough time to make it to safety. He fell deep into the waters grip waking up in the real world to a fury of sneezes. His head was throbbing and his body felt like noodles, but he pushed aside the mountain of blankets that kept him warm. He couldn't afford to miss another class or another day of work. A shiver snaked its way down his spine as he remembered the dream with the nightmarish hag. The dream wasn't too bad, there was a nude guy. That slap happy thought, made him giggle like a drunkard and kept him amused while he was trying to focus through out the day.
