Well those weren't quite the answers any of them were looking for, but they were reasonable enough answers all the same. Plus, it seemed they had this man to thank for saving their lives initially, so a bit of good faith didn't seem out of place. It seemed only a few moments had passed when a foul wind could be heard, a glacial chill that was horridly familiar. Col continued taking agonizing steps. He needed to move. That was the most important thing when you were cold like this. Just keep... keep... moving...

Ah, like the sun emerging on a wintery day a sudden warmth burst forth from the old man, warding off the dread chill, and returning the flexibility to his body. Col turned to face the source of the wind for a mere moment. Revulsion flooded through him, causing his body to shiver in a way that had nothing to do with the cold. There were no words to explain how wrong what he saw was. The old man's words were the catalyst to cause Col to turn away with rapid steps, they had to leave. If that [I]wrongness[/I] touched them Col could only imagine something similar to the void they had traversed to get here, only somehow worse and unending.

[color=forestgreen]"Get on the dog!"[/color] Col shouted. The lighthouse was too far away, he didn't know how long the seeming wizard could hold that thing at bay, but he suspected that just running would not get them there fast enough. Col ran to the dog, intent on boarding it way one or the other. Be that the it leaned down to help him get up, or he clutched at its fur and pulled himself up. It was certainly large enough to bear all of them and still travel faster than any of them could run. Col would have perhaps thought the dog could help fight any sort of monster before he saw that thing, but he entertained such thoughts no longer. It was time to leave.
