" Yeah, those horses don't seem to know how to hide themselves. " Anne paused, thinking of something logical about where the horses might be. " They must be tired. What if the horses might lead us to a lake? The horses seem to know this forest better than us. Maybe if we manage to follow their tracks, it will lead us to the lake " Anne added, and she suddenly felt excited to find them. Her dress suddenly felt heavy from the added green liquid and she felt very filthy. She was craving to have another bath.

" What do you say about that? " Anne asked Kale, feeling so pumped up to find the lake. She won't mind the long walk to the lake or to finding their horses, she just wanted to make sure that she will take a bath.

The weight of the forest seemed lighter. There was even a deer that walked by her side for a while, and she chuckled that they can even recognize her. There were also birds passing by over their heads. Maybe they were all just hiding from the giant insect. And that they were thanking them for slaying it. She was also happy now, their first obstacle has been taken care of, and now she was with Kale. Shyly, she took his hand and laced it with her own. She felt her cheeks suddenly heating up.
