You were blind - born that way. You and your friends had gone hiking and where you got separated and lost.

You anxiously wandered around the woods for hours, calling for your friends before you bumped into someone whom you assumed was another hiker. You asked him for directions back to the main path.

He was not - though he didn't tell you that.

He took you to his cottage deep in the woods, he lied and said, "I don't know what hiking trail you speak of but you can stay here until I find it."
