the man who died leaving 12 small chests behind(part 4)...a tall order I

12:57 p.m.

written again was a cryptic message

when the giant sleeps
then snippety snap you go
armpit hair you take

and before the clock struck 1, our protagonist whom we refer for now as r took his position inside the chest. after the lid had been secured, r waited patiently till the grandfather clock hanging over the chests i.e. cranky man's bed struck 1. the machineries inside the chest(wherever they were) started whirring and r experienced weightlessness and felt himself hurtling at a great speed to godknowswhere.
after approximately 10 seconds(trusting r's slow counting) of this rumbling tumbling, the chest came to a halt with a dramatic flinging open of tis lid. r hurried out for he knew about the hour deadline of completing each task. the task as r thought, was difficult. but challenges were something he enjoyed.

the strange land in which he had landed was indeed very strange...



...if liked may be continued
