The Well

Someone goes through the darkness, finds you and gives you a name: Bo. He drags you to a group that, together, celebrates your arrival. Everyone there was waiting for you. “To the light! Bo has come to save us all!” They repeat, euphoric. You are Bo. That is all you know. A name and a sentence: find a way out or join the dust.
