Success

Like crossing a river

You balance precariously on a leather ottoman before making the next leap. Where the water splashes your shoes, it leaves patchy discoloured stains. Best not find out what it would do to your skin.

Failure

Terrible danger

You almost make it across the flooded patch of the library – but you mis-time your last jump. […] Your skin stings for hours.
