Haunted Wood Are you ready for what's to come?

Aviana did not stick around for the conversation that followed her departure, nor she even glance in their direction as she heard her name called through through the forest she was running through. She simply ran, dodging half bare trees. The further she went, the darker it seemed to get, and the more lost she felt. She slowed to a stop after a glance behind her deemed her alone. Stopping next to a tree, she looked around, her heart pounding in her chest, fear gripping her. She didn't know which way to go, only that she couldn't go back the way she came. 

Suddenly, a dead branch fell from the tree above her, landing squarely on her hind end. She let out a yelp and ran further into the woods. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a hollowed out base of a tree and darted in, shoving her body inside of it and curling up. It really wasn't quite big enough for her, but at least nothing could come up behind her. She let out a sob, her chest heaving with both emotion and exertion. She had found her brother, and felt she had lost him in the same moment.
