Even though there were three stars hanging lazily overhead, their light could still not completely pierce the heavy and thick leaves of the forest.
In fact, I would have gone as far as saying it was far more like a jungle than the verdant oaks and trees I was used to walking through forests in the countrysides of the UK.
"I don't like it in here," I said under my breath, my voice hushed and tense.
Sothing had the hair on the back of my neck and down my arms standing up on end. I didn't know if it was just because I was walking through a dark and gloomy jungle or if there was sothing actually out there, but sothing had seriously on edge.
"No, neither do I," Yr'Arl replied, going so far as to drop his usual formal greeting, "My predatory senses, passed down through many millennia of evolution, are telling that sothing is stalking us."
Well, that was a terrifying thought.
What would be daring enough to try and track two beings who were incredibly strong such as and Yr'Arl?
The only thing that would do sothing like that was sothing confident that it could at the very least pick one of us off to be devoured sowhere in the jungle, which wasn't exactly a comforting line of ntal deduction.
"You wanna do a scan for nearby life signs or sothing?" I asked, that was still sothing that I hadn't managed to get the hang of.
"That could alert the creature to the fact we know it is following us," Yr'Arl said, "It might then take that as an opportunity to attack us."
I swallowed hard. We had no idea what the creature was, or how powerful it was, but I was sure that together we would be able to fend it off. BB was sure that we should be way stronger than anything else in the area, and that was enough reassurance for . Sort of.
