"Hah… Hah…"
The Reptilian girl ran.
She did not know what she was running towards, only that she needed to get away.
'The further I get from that cursed cage, the less Kurnish will come for me!'
Branches scratched her arms and face as she forced herself through the thick vegetation.
But even though her life depended on it, obstructive thoughts swarmed and clouded her mind and judgement.
'Where am I going? Back to…? I can't! There's nowhere for me to go-'
"HSSSSSS!"
Her entire body jolted.
The screech had come from somewhere to her left.
Then another hiss from the right.
'Spirits…' She gritted her teeth. 'Is that really what these are?!'
The Kurnish were sacred to all those she knew.
'If they really carried my ancestors or my descendants… Why are they trying so hard to hurt me?!'
"HSSSSSS!"
She flinched again.
'If they're my descendants in the first place, why are they trying to eat me?! How can I have descendants if I'm eaten by them?!'
