(CORRINE)
I'm running in the forest. The monsters are chasing me. I can see the Veil, but I'm too far away. And the monsters are gaining on me.
"Mom! Mama!"
I hear Finn shouting my name. I have to hurry to get to him.
I feel a burning sensation on my back before I smell the hot, wet scent of my blood in the air.
I'm falling.
He's screaming for me. "Mom!"
I can barely walk, crawling now. I have to get to my baby. I have to protect him.
But I'm surrounded. They're approaching me now, vicious-looking monsters with terrifying faces and teeth so sharp.
"Mom!"
I can barely move. "Mama, help!"
The terror in my son's voice has me jolting upright, my eyes flying open. "Finn!"
A wave of dizziness hit me, and I would have slumped back down had someone not caught me. "Easy."
I'm lowered to the bed, and I look around with a pounding heart. I'm not in the Misty Forest. I'm home. I'm in my house, in my bed.
But where is my child? "Finn," I mumble.
