He awoke fully-clothed in the woods, over an hour away from the comfort of own bed, within the company of a herd of deer.
As he propped himself up onto his elbows, one of them stepped in between him and the weak dawn sun.

Awaking fully clothed is always a story.

Hmm, the thing is: can one follow the stag’s advise? Super words, as always.
