You cannot see much through the stirred up muck at the bottom of the river.

You pull yourself up onto the muddy riverbank. Your skin and clothes seem to have been burned off, revealing that your body is dull gray and metallic.

Check yourself out in your own reflection.

Then examine surroundings.

Your limbs and body are a pearly gray color. They look like they are made of steel, and are wet, blackened and muddy from your fall.
Instead of muscles, your body has pneumatic pistons.

You are in a shallow valley. Enormous pine trees surround you, and it seems cold, although you don't seem to be able to feel the temperature very well.

There is the river in front of you. The water isn't moving very fast, but already the stirred-up mud from your fall has been almost completely dispersed.

Around you are large, mossy boulders. Pinecones and small sticks litter the ground.

Let's be sensible. Wash off in the river.

Some of the moss flies off the boulder, but nothing else happens.

You grab a nice big stick and walk upriver, into the endless pine forest.

After about ten minutes of walking, you come upon a prism lying in a small clearing. It looks like one of the prisms you sent into space.
It is rather squished.

You pick up the squished prism.

You notice that the sky has gotten considerably darker, as if a storm is coming.

You hide under a tree.

It begins to rain, hard. The thunder seems closer now. You see flashes of lightning.
