How it begins

The first thing you become aware of upon awakening is the ground. Now this isn't anything that you haven't seen before - indeed, you've spent quite a bit of your life walking on it so it'd be true to say that you're somewhat of an expert. But usually when you see the ground first thing in the morning, it's a couple feet away from where you're lying hung over the edge of your bed. It's not fifty feet away!

You wake up quickly after that, the sudden action setting you to swinging. Swinging? A quick peer upwards reveals the truth: you're hanging from the underside of a bridge!
