PROMPT:

"Never start something you can't finish."

The words echoed in the recesses of his mind, the only thing he remembered of his life. They flitted through hovering mists and shadows and bounced off the emptiness, taunting him. Had he started something? Finished it? He needed information. Detailed information. And lots of it.

Here's a story starter for you. I'd love to see where it takes you. Have fun. :o)

It was a night fit for neither man, nor beast, yet in this night a solitary soul walked.
