I close my bag and put it on, then climb down from the tree. Time to find a source of water.
It is lighter, and the mist has gone. I am free from the Shadows for now.
I stroll through the forest, and stumble upon a set of footprints. Someone has been here.
Wait... Footprints?
I reach down and feel the earth. Damp.
I follow the footprints, and ground becomes spongy. Before long, I have arrived at a spring.
I'm safe.
