Phantom Hollow feels like I am falling down a rabbit hole;; falling for forever

@Lennon @Korei Julia hope this works!

It had been a couple days since his last proper meal-- scraps here and there when he could scavenge them, and the berries he now thought of as Guilty Berries. The boy was weaker for it, and he was already small, so he shouldn't have been as surprised as he was when he fell.

Alarian wasn't so weak yet that he should have fallen if he was acting normal, but he wouldn't be caught dead doing that. He had spent the day climbing trees, hopping from one to another when two branches were close enough-- and sometimes when they weren't. Athletic as he was, his limbs felt heavy and tired, contrasting his stomach's airy emptiness; an overestimation of his own ability had sent him tumbling to the forest floor, dropping hard into the snow. He wheezed, the wind knocked from him, and decided if he didn't die then and there (not that he was close-- just dramatic) he would get up and find himself a fat squirrel.
