I found the glass bottle on the beach in my wanderings. How long had it been waiting there for some passerby to find it I wonder?
Further down the beach on my small island there was a man drenched from the sea water that washed him ashore.
He was still breathing. A miracle? Perhaps. Perhaps not.
People don't end upon my island by chance or accident.
I held the glass bottle up to the sunlight. It was empty.
An empty glass bottle and a stranger, male, about 30 years old or so who looked worse for wear.
I have been isolated on this island for centuries.
This is not a first for me.
Who sent this man here and why?
Should I leave him here
