   Summary

   The Unknown isn't the only place with darkness. It resides everywhere, even when there is also light. Often, it's so subtle that one may not notice it at all. But sometimes on the darkest nights, shadows cover everything within reach, and even the brightest light cannot stop them. At times like these, the best thing to do is to strike a match, find another pair of hands in the darkness, and wait for the sun to rise.
   _________
   Or, Wirt wakes up from a nightmare, and Greg comes to investigate. Emotions ensue.

   Summary

   Wirt knew, on a basic level, that drowning was not good for your health, even in non-fatal cases.
   He knew, in theory, that it could cause issues.
   But Greg didn’t seem to be having issues as he walked around the hospital room telling everyone about their adventures.
   Greg was fine.
   And for some reason, that made Wirt forget that the same might not apply to him.
   —————
   The boys wake up from their adventure in The Unknown, and Wirt learns about two things: Greg’s wish in Cloud City, and the physical side effects of drowning.

   Summary

   Erin thought that he could handle this. The storm shouldn't have been a problem for him...and yet, everything went wrong anyways, in the most spectacular way that it could. Now, lying prone on the floor of a cave, he's left feeling just as helpless as that sick little kid he used to be, all those years ago.
