Clief and Nari both came out the cave to meet up with Jayden, and saw the same horrific sight. It was all gone, the whole forest was gone.

What could've happened here!? Could we have been followed? No, we were always checking.....could the new threat already be here? If so, then is it too late?

Both Nari and Jayden looked at the empty burnt out forest with a horrified look upin their faces.

"I think we should probably leave this place. We dont want anyone coming here and thinking it was us," Clief suggested to the two.

They looked at him, then eachother, and agreed that it was a good idea. They got the rest of their things from the cave and headed east, towards the town of Ishba. It was the second largest city on this continent, so Nari and Jayden were to find anyone that could help them, it would be there.

After afew days of travel, and rations getting low, the group decided it was best to rest for a day and resupply their water, and perhaps any fruit if it could be found. Clief went by himself to get the water, and left Jayden and Nari o find some food before anyone could object to. He headed towards a lake, and decided he mite have a short swim to relax.

"It's been a while since i even had a bath....a very long time indeed," he thought aloud.

He took off his equipment and clothes and walked into the water. He went as far as waist deep before he stopped and took in the scenery.
