Who do we follow now? Denni and Yolna at the campsite? Or one of the groups in the forest?
Ria, Hanna, and Josk.
Ria made her way through the forest, leading the way as Hanna and Josk followed closely behind. Hanna was keeping an eye out for berries and other edible plant life, and Josk kept a hand on one of his axes at all times, wary for trouble.
The woods were getting thicker, darker, as the trio continued on. The forest was ancient, untouched by humans in years.
"This place has so much life energy," Hanna whispered, running a hand along a fern. "Centuries of magic connecting everything."
"Great," said Ria. "Can it connect us to dinner?"
Hanna held out a handful of blackberries. "This is all I found so far."
"We can go a little farther," Josk said. "Then we should turn back, so we return to camp by sundown."
"I agree," Ria said. She slung Denni's bow over her shoulder and pointed east. "Half an hour more that way, then we turn back."
"Alright," Josk said.
What do they find in the woods?
