You nibble on the licorice. You've never tasted anything like it.
You push further into the market, eager to explore. You begin to feel nauseous. You reach the river's edge and stumble to the railing. You should not have eaten that licorice. Your body screams for you to get it out of your system, but, being a rodent, you are unable to vomit. You slump against the railing as the toxins work through your system. You die.
