The chest has floated really far...
Dry land should be your guiding star.
Episode 6
You wade to shore with weary feet
Your throat is dry, you need to eat
The dead man sways in the gentle breeze
Ahead, you see a few green trees.
There is a rock pool, yards away
There could be crab, or shrimp, or cray
You must move fast, your body's weak...

Head for the trees, it's fruit you seek
Avoid the circle or your future is bleak
Nicely referenced. Into past episodes you did peek.
Looks like you decided the next path
And sun begins to burn your cheek.
The coin toss marked yours as the fatal suggestion. Luckily, you lost the coin toss to tie break which winning suggestion gets used
You must find food, it's time to eat, but perhaps it's best to get some sleep
but your future is so bleak.
You missed out this time. But the story lives on!
