Caught in a Mirage

Describe a situation where extreme heat led you (or a fictional character) to see something that wasn’t real.

In extreme heat, our perception can deceive us, creating hallucinations or mirages. Write about a situation where this has happened, either in reality or fictional settings. Exploring this theme lets the writer delve into the reliability of perception, the tricks our senses can play on us, and the way we react to these signals from our external environment.
