Yeah, maybe. But, right, no story conclusion. You will not be blessed with my literary "skills".

I'll finish it for you matey.

The harsh jagged floor of the gorge met George with a sickening crunching of bones. Organs shattered, muscle tore, and then....silence. His blood mixed with the rain forming a crimson stream, flowing quickly away from his ruined body. A badger scurried up to the lifeless form and sniffed curiously at an eyeball, before taking it in its mouth and scampering to shelter. George may be no more, but at least the inhabitants of this gorge would have their fill.

The End

Rob's losing it. He praised as wondrous prose something I think you'll find had a spelling mistake in it.

Would you like me to boldy comment on the split infinitive in a way no split infinitive has been boldly commented on before?

Robsie, there's nothing more I'd love than to split your infinitive, but I prefer not to get blood on my hands, thank you.
