Into the darkness, I lead my ship.
It seemed like the best idea before it became reality: Escape the mundanities of regular life, and set sail on a voyage to explore the world. I wanted to experience the various adventures this world had to offer. A bunch of young ones who were influenced by my words, joined me on my escape from reality. This scares me now. What if I made a mistake? Will these young ones suffer because of me?
Not on my watch…
The darkness does not look so bad, with the moon and stars guiding me…

I like the sense of encroaching reality when at the start he had thought to escape reality. It seems reality is much like your thoughts: wherever you go, you take it with you. 🙂

It’s one thing to embark on a risk, and another to influence others. I enjoyed your story’s tug between responsibility and adventure.
