The Sunspire dandelion fluff

It became immediately clear that Teya was better at this than Zane, but that didn't sway him from attempting to lead the way.  The ledge they were on started out clear, but soon enough it transitioned to the same rocky rough that the rest of the place was cursed with.  Of course.  Whatever god was getting a good laugh out of this one, he hoped they choked.  Zane eyed the climb, then began to scramble up one of the sections towards a higher rise.  

This part's.... easier.... because of the.... uh.  The rocks.  That made zero sense, but who the fuck knew about climbing mountains? (Oops.)  He paused, heart pounding with the adrenaline.  No looking down, but momentary break time.  

I just figure, gorgeous girl like you would have guys beggin to accompany you.  He answered after a second or two.  Life of a loner isn't safe.  I'm fine with it, of course, because it's all I know.  Fine, tragic figure he struck.  Mysterious loner, tragic past, no home... shit like that drove 'em mad.

You, you I'd have expected to see a line behind.  He looked up, swallowed, and continued to try to climb.  Ahhh fuck fuck fuck.... the mantra continued in his mind the higher they got.  Teya, with her experience, would likely outstrip him easily.
