Piyo - Cut Ending
Piyo staggered across the desert, injured but still alive, still going. He was tired, he wanted to be at rest, but something demanded he keep going.
He’d suffered a lot, some not his fault, a lot his own fault, but either way he suffered. He was tired of it. He didn’t want to keep going anymore.
He came over a hill. Something in his heart spoke to him.
“If you reach that village you’ll survive and you’ll live on.”
Piyo turned around and limped further into the desert.
“Do you not want life? You can still turn things around if you’re willing to do what it takes.”
Empty promises. He didn’t really believe that, but it allowed him to turn away.
He wandered off into the desert. He died of thirst somewhere and was forgotten, and that was the end of him.
