Finally…we manage to get pass those water moles, they were a hassle. Why were there some many of them, I'll never know. What matters is that we made it here alive and in one piece, now we just need to get through this jungle. Wow they were not kidding when they said dark, it's pretty tough to see here. Judging by the clouds, it shows no choice of the sky ever showing soon. Might as well continue our- oh my…what is going on here? What is with this weird feeling in the atmosphere? Why are there troggies running around? Why are the trees moving on their own?! Oh boy! There is waaaay too much stuff happening right now and we just got here, oooh where to start?

"LOOK OUT!", Gaspard shouted.

Our eyes caught the sight of a troggies ambush from the still trees above, why are they attacking us? Sadly we couldn't talk our way what of this, we had to fight. Gaspard and Kobe sprung into attack the moment I gave them a command, I did my best using the spells need for battle. I was amazed to see Kobe's fighting style, it's unlike anything I've ever seen. And Gaspard's strength is superb, wielding and swinging that battle axe without any fatigue. With our skills, the troggies fell one by one and ended up retreating deep within the jungle.

"PHEW, that was close", Gaspard said wiping his head then putting his hat back on.

"I'll say", I said adjusting my sleeves, "Come on, let's see if we could-", I paused feeling something wet on my head.

"Oh it's starting to rain", Gaspard said looking up and holding his hand out.

Rain…why did it have to rain now? It'll be okay it's just a little drizzle, I can't let this stop me now. We moved forward through the jungle as dark as it might be for any clues of both the monquistans and the cave of voices. So far nothing, but the trees we are trying to avoid. There are also weapons scattered around the area, why are there so many? I could think about it, but it's hard to focus when this rain is getting…heavier.

"Guys look! The outpost… it's gone!", Gaspard said pointing to the destroyed outpost.

Oh no, I hope we're not late! Gaspard, Kobe, and I did our best searching for any sign of the… survivors. It's…raining…too much…

"Look over here, I've found something!", Kobe shouted.

It's…getting harder to see…harder to…breathe. I can't feel…my legs, I fell due to the numbness. Th-thunder? My whole body is shaking from the sound. I tried to stop it, but I can't control it. No, no no no. Please not now, not NOW!

"Tara?", Gaspard called out.

It's too much, it's getting too dark. Please stop, please stop raining… please stop thundering…please…

"TARA!", both Gaspard and Kobe shouted running towards me.

Gasp…ard…Kobe…please help me… I'm…I'm scared.

"TARA, TARA WHAT IS WRONG?!", Kobe shouted holding my shoulders.

"Please Tara speak to us!", Gaspard shouted.

Their voices…are…getting…harder…to…hear….

"TARA PLEASE ANSWER! TARA?! TARAAAAAAA!"
