I've always been afraid of thunder, ever since I was a child. It's a bit strange considering I've never really been afraid of lightning... only the thunder that followed. Maybe it's the noise or the sudden vibrations, but something about it just chills me to the bone. Sorry to ramble on, but it does have something to do with my story. My story begins in the middle of the woods, you see I used to be what the civilized referred to as a hermit. I used to live in a log cabin, out in the woods.
