The water was known to have taken the lives of men; curiously, no woman could be counted amongst the casualties of Rhodes Lake, now so named. That is, no woman could be counted among the casualties until now and this one was wretched. It was a different sort of death, one which was believed to have prolonged her agony ungraciously long and no one knew why. Impossible, though it would seem, to survive that long, she had. It was believed that she was out floating in the vastness of the lake for ten days before she was found. When she was, she was butchered. Multiple stab wounds covered her body. Many of them were to vital organs. It was a miracle to have survived that long, if one had the heart to put it that way. The wounds came from within, beginning in the stomach and making their way to the uterus. From there they exited out through the rest of the body. In the end Stacey died on the lakeshore, gasping for an air that could never fill the walls of her lungs.
