One Line – Your Opening Paragraph

I posted the first line of a paragraph on Twitter, inviting writers to create and link their own opening paragraph

The sentence: Ultimately, young Baxter knew he faced his death.

Here is mine:

He watched his life seep through the bandages into the rising pools. Minnoh waited for him in the darkness below, where he would challenge his fate when he died.
