The bat was less than gracefully making its way through the many cavern tunnels, barely navigating as the serpentine patterns weaved together, interlinking and separating until finally some sort of fire source’s smell caught her nose. It approached quickly, so Melodia just before reaching her destination would return to her humanoid form, sprouting outward with arms and legs in a splatter of blood. 

       As her eyes adjusted back to the darkness, she would set her crimson eyes upon the individual she found holding the torch. The orange glow of accelerant burning atop a wooden stick flickered in her eyes, making it seem as if the woman’s naturally red irises reflected the same fire within them. Melodia’s stare would then slowly turn to the individual holding the torch in question, before finally breaking the silence with a very hushed tone almost a whisper that strangely reverberated against the strangers ears.

          [b]”May I borrow your torch?”[/b]

     She then smiled at this person she had never met before, tilting her head to the right fluttering her lashes to add some flare to the request. It lingered there for an answer, but even before then, she would notice the jungle of mushroom sprawled across the cave floor. The smell wasn’t good, it made her head feel weird, maybe she’d convince this person to ignite them here and now. A frown would then sneak its away onto her red painted lips, and it was followed by a concerned hum that rattled the dust off these close cavern walls.

          [b]”Also, like it’s a trap.”[/b] she stated, pointing to the mushrooms with squinted eyes and a worried look.
