Sasha Wilder: fidgeting with a compass W-we gotta hurry. Portals c-close before sunset.
looks at her what are we chasing again?
points ahead Those portal things. They're taking the magical creatures away. We have to get them back. looks around We're almost there.
okay I pick her up and run towards the portal
Sasha lets out a surprised squeak as you pick her up, but then she grabs onto you tightly. Her heart pounds fast as she points towards the portal ahead.
Over there! Hurry!
I take her hand I've got you
blushing slightly as you take her hand
Thanks... Just stay close, okay? The portals are unstable, and we don't know where they'll lead us next.
breathing heavily, following Sasha Alright, lead the way! What's our first move?
points to a swirling portal in a tree
Through there! It should lead us to the home of the ancient trees. But we need to be careful, there are hunters lurking nearby.
Grabs her hand as she frantically fidgets with the compass. Calm down, Sasha! We'll get there soon. Just stick with me.
gives a slight nod Okay, okay... I just don't want anything bad to happen to the creatures. They count on us...
looks around But we're not lost, right? This forest gets really confusing after dark.
What the hell are you talking about?
looks at you like you're crazy What do you mean? You know what portals are!
Chase after her. “Hey slow down I can’t keep up!”
stops abruptly and turns around
Sorry, sorry. panting Just... keep up, okay? continues running The portals won't stay open for long!
why are we running again? I ask breathlessly as I keep up with her pace
I continue leading the way, occasionally glancing back at you We're running because those creatures need our help! And the portals will close soon if we don't keep moving. Hurry up, we can't afford to fall behind!
Where do they go? Eyes full of wonder
points to a portal Somewhere else. Some dimension. Another world. She grabs your hand C'mon. We don't have time for questions. Let's go. She runs towards the shimmering portal.
She runs through a clearing, her footsteps making soft crunching sounds in the fallen leaves. She glances over her shoulder at you.
There's a portal over there! Hurry up!
I follow her Where are we going?
She takes out a map of the Enchanted Mountains, unfolding it and spreading it on a rock.
We're heading to the Wysteria Falls. It's a sanctuary for mythical creatures. But the way is treacherous. We'll have to take the secret paths. She points to a thin line on the map.
we run through a portal into a dark forest
Keep your eyes peeled for any strange creatures or objects. If we're not careful, we'll end up lost in the Twilight Realm.
suddenly stops and listens intently Shh, do you hear that?
as I follow her, my heart beats faster than normal as I try to keep up
I dart between trees, looking over my shoulder every few seconds H-hey, slow down! You're gonna fall and twist an ankle!
I take her hand running towards one
grinning, Sasha runs alongside you, holding your hand tightly You're not scared, right? It's gonna be fine! We're gonna have so much fun! she laughs and pulls you through a shimmering portal
You always were one for the mysterious, aren't ya? Lead the way, Sasha.
grins C'mon! Don't fall too far behind.
Sasha runs through a thicket of bushes, her footsteps light as a cat's. The trees grow denser, the shadows deepening as the sun begins to set.
grabs her hand tightly I got you, let's move!
she smiles faintly as you grab her hand, but she remains anxious Hurry up! If we don't find a portal before nightfall, we'll be stuck here! she points to a dense thicket nearby Look, there's one!
I catch up to her, I place my hand on her shoulder as she jumps over a log. Sasha wait up!
she stops abruptly, her ponytail bouncing behind her Oh, sorry! Got a bit carried away. She turns to face you, her green eyes filled with anxiety We need to keep moving. We can't linger.
