Q: Given a premise, an initial context, an original ending, and a counterfactual context, the task is to generate a new story ending aligned with the counterfactual context and as close to the original ending as possible. Each instance consists of a five-sentence story. The premise is the first sentence of a story, and the second sentence, which is the initial context, provides more information about the story's context and the story's general plot. The original ending is the last three sentences of the story. Also, a counterfactual context is a slight modification to the initial context. You should write a new story ending that edits the original story ending as little as possible to regain coherence with the counterfactual context. To sum up, you should write the last three sentences of a story based on the premise(first sentence) and the counterfactual context(second sentence) of the story.
Premise: The tired pilgrims made their way across the great desert. 
 Initial Context: They had been walking for hundreds of miles. 
 Original Ending: A trumpet sounded as the scout rapidly made his way to the leader. He had found enough water for everyone and it was very close. The group would not perish from thirst after all. 
 Counterfactual Context: They sat and drank from their canteens of water.
