387 Day 3 (1)

The leaves crunched under their feet as they made their way towards their destination. The sun was directly above their heads, shining brightly but there was barely any sunlight at the place they were at. The thick trees loomed over them like monstrous shadows which were stalking them at every step. 

A dense forest lay ahead devoid of any sounds. Not even the sounds of insects nor the chirping of birds could be heard. Animals avoided that place like a plague and dead carcasses of many creatures lay around them as they ventured deeper into the forest. The little sunshine which followed them had disappeared, leaving nothing but an ominous darkness.

Anyal did not reply to her but kept on walking ahead. His eyes were fixated on his goal which was not far away. Moving aside the vines in his way, he slowly approached a place within the deepest part of the forest.
