The End

Jacques looked down at the directions String Bean had given him. It resembled the page from the book he found. Jacques felt confident, and he started running. He was free, he was dead for all they cared, and he got a chance to start over. He got the chance to learn who he was, beyond being a resourcer. Hal smiled as he kept on running, glancing down at the directions he felt he no longer needed. It was a feeling, not a map, you found the civilization by finding who you are and believing in something. 

All of a sudden, Jacques began to fall and fall and continue falling. 

“Thud.”

Jacques rubbed his head and looked up. He had fallen straight into a hole. But then he looked in front of him, and it was String Bean. And a bunch of other String Beans standing next to him. Jacques smiled. String Bean led him around and explained to him how everything worked and then after some time, String Bean paused and frowned at him. He led him to a lookout on the edge of a rock. String Bean invited Jacques to sit with him. And then just as Jacques had been told, everything before him turned to bright orange and red. Jacques had to turn his head. String Bean assured him that he was safe there and left Jacques to sit there all alone. 

And Jacques watched the world burn.

THE END.
