How do you control your destiny?

Why not a little cruise.

Ignoring the shabby looking cart in the distance, you turn your attention instead to the pounding of the waves below on the shoreline, peering over the cliff it is quite a ways down, though luckily there seems to have materialized a narrow but rocky path to lead you down the Cliffside. And soon you find yourself on the seashore, strewn with pebbles which the waves have knocked off the cliffs over the ages and rounded them to become a smooth bed of stones. Turning your attention to the lone dingy on the shore It is made of old dark wood, but seems to be relatively sturdy enough even coming with a mast and a decent sail folded up in the boat. You yourself spent some time along the seashore as a kid so you quickly hoist the mast and set the sail, you have no worries since you are a god now, so you push the dingy out to sea without provisions and marvel as the incoming waves seem to part before you as the wind blows at your back pushing you out to sea. The day passes calmly with no incident, the water stretches onward an infinite canvas of rolling blue with no lands in sight. However luckily you do not hunger or thirst, yes you miss those sensations, but you find that they are no longer needs, more desires to satiate. As the day crawls onward however dark clouds begin to brew on the horizon, growing heavier and oppressive by the minute and quickly the seas swell up and toss your dingy around, the sky opens and the heavy rain pours downward. You grip the mast in fear as nature's fury tosses you around, closing your eyes you face your insignificant helplessness as a human. Throughout your life you had been trodden on, dismissed and forgotten by your peers, deemed crazy for your ideas, and shut away from the regular people because you were the weirdo. And now your quest for Science is going to end in your ****, your poor miserable human life is going to end out here In the middle of the ocean entirely alone and helpless. Perhaps this world is not as heavenly as you believed? But then you are not a human anymore.. and realizing that you stand up in the boat, facing the storm you shout at it to stop, hurling your frustration at your previous life at the storm. And surprisingly it obeys, the storm clouds roll back away from you. And the stars come out, the seas calm and you are left to ponder yourself, you should never limit yourself by your humanity again. You don't need to be afraid of anything, a god like you is invincible aren't you? Without you noticing much however a fog began to creep forth a crossed the waves shrouding the ocean in mystery. A sudden tolling if a bell off in the distance wakes you up from your reverie however and looking up you see a distant light in the fog, it could be a ship, it could be a light house, but if it were a lighthouse there surely would be a shore between you and it, and dangerous rocks. But why should you worry, your a god remember? Another noise startles you, a loud plop of water and in the opposite direction you see a great shadow in the mist, slowly gliding closer like like a wraith on the water but of immense size, it's unclear what the shadow is but you know deep down that it is something horrible. Turning between the two you contemplate your choices, face the incoming shadow? Or rush to the shore and hopefully safety.

choose wisely and seal your fate.
