Welcome to story time everyone

Thank you for your company

I'm going to tell you a story so make yourself comfortable. Actually I'm not telling the entire truth, I'm only going to start this story because I would like you to complete it. Take the story anywhere you want to. All I ask is that you let your imagination take you anywhere it wants to go. Use the comment box to move the story along. A sentence, two sentences or a paragraph it's up to you. The winning comment will receive a generous 100 Whaleshares.

Make it dramatic or make it funny. Make it relaxing or make it chilling. It's a blank page for you to experiment with. Have some fun with it and exercise your creative muscle. You do not need to write any other comment, just your part of the story.

A big thank you to all of the Whaleshares Team, particularly @akrid, as this post is being sponsored by the Whaleshares project. If you would like to learn more about Whaleshares and how they can significantly increase your post rewards please visit https://steemit.com/whaleshares/@eirik/steemgig-a-complete-guide-on-how-to-use-whaleshares where @eirik will gladly explain more to you.

If you choose to take part, and I really hope you do, please don't forget to upvote and resteem this post. The winning post will be judged by me and the awesome @blueskieson-mars. We will be looking for:

• A strong sense of imagination
• Creative intelligence
• Originality
• Narrative fluidity (ensuring the story chain links smoothly)
• Use of language, grammar and syntax (we need to understand what you're saying!)

The winner will be announced in a week's time. A new post will be published then announcing the winner along with a new story chain.

So without further hesitation Steemers let me introduce you to the first part of 'The Forgotten House'.

I remember waking up and the first thing that hit me was the rich smell of old timber. I was perched on a very old chair that was just managing to do its job. In front of me a very large and dusty wooden table. The table was set for seven places, but there was no one around. Dust everywhere. This table had not been used in years. The whole room was covered in cobwebs. All of the windows were either cracked or smashed. This house had been abandoned. I stood up, a little wobbly. I peered out of the window, I was met with field after field. Where was I? How on earth did I get here? I looked to my left and there was that face, staring right at me.
