[quote=@ShadowVentus] Hearing Anna's voice, a smile grace's Ventus' face once again. "Don't mention it. The name's Ventus, but you can call me Ven. What would your name be?" He asks, offering a hand so she could sit up and take in more of the fire's heat. [/quote] "My name's Annalyn. Most people call me Anna." She smiled sweetly and took his hand. "I can't believe I fell down the ravine. I swear the tree tripped--" She froze, having suddenly felt like someone's eyes were on her. Then Zedd jumped down from the tree right in front of her and started unloading his bag full of... fish? Alright then. "H-hello there? Uh... A-are you a wizard?" Not the smartest thing to ask someone new and strange, probably, but she still wasn't thinking straight. And she didn't have much time to contemplate the answer as it suddenly went dark and she started hearing creatures howling all around them. She scooted closer to the fire, [i]don't look at the darkness or you'll panic, Anna, don't look, don't look, just focus on the fire and be calm, be calm, don't freak out don't freak out don't freak out![/i] Silhouetted against the dusky sky was a castle, far far in the distance. But most definitely closer, indeed right behind them... She turned slowly, aware of something looking at her. And then she bolted to her feet in a panic as she made eye contact with the Chimera's lion head. "Oh, my gods, oh my gods oh my gods oh my gods..." She'd read stories of the Chimera, what it did to its victims.... "Um, Ven, other person, it might be time to run?"
