Problem is, you give us so little to go on that trying to get a handle on it is like carrying fog in a string bag. It's why I prefer to get the definitions upfront, that way there's no equivalent of the "that's not what I believe/said" card up the sleeve.
That's because I have no interest in using it to try to convince you to believe what I believe. Again, the only reason I mentioned it is because I don't like it when strangers on the internet make assertions about me like they're facts.

Sorry, I did not mean to ignore your story. You kind of write like JK Rowling. Or maybe it's just a normal British flare lol. Anyway, I enjoyed reading it and felt really sad for you about Sam.
I don't know what else to say about it other than that, since I was not there and don't even know what the whole setting is like. Is it possible an animal could be in there? Could someone have thrown something and then hid? I have no idea because I was not there and don't know what the possibilities could have been.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
