I mean, it's fanfic, but a share prompt is a share prompt...🙂

(Opening lines of "This Mortal Coil")
Opening lines if the fic "This Mortal Coil" Top of page is taken from Hamlet, Act 3, Scene 1: "To die, to sleep; To sleep, perchance to dream. Ay, there's the rub. For in that sleep of death, what dreams may come when we have shuffled off this mortal coil." The opening line of the fic itself reads: "Argyle struggled over a stretch of broken granite, overgrown with brambles, slick with spring-fed rills trickling down sheer canyon walls. He squinted in the mist and fog, blown down from unseen heights on either side of the narrow defile."
