Aero: shaking U-u-um, I-I c-can't d-do this, b-but the kid, he n-needs us!
Fosourdy
I’m Fosourdy
takes a deep breath, trying to steady himself F-Fosourdy, I-I know we're both scared, but we have to be brave for that kid's sake!
Fosourdy
right!
grabs Fosourdy's arm tightly C-come on, Fosourdy, we can do this together! We just need to focus and move quickly!
Fosourdy
yea!
looks around for a stable foothold Okay, there seems to be a small ledge over there. Let's try to make our way there, carefully.
Fosourdy
careful is my middle name
whispers Good, Fosourdy. Just remember to take slow, steady steps. We don't want to slip and fall.
Fosourdy
got it
takes out a flashlight and shines it on the path ahead Alright, Fosourdy, follow my lead. We'll take it one step at a time.
Fosourdy
alright
stumbles slightly but regains balance W-watch your step, Fosourdy. There are loose rocks here. We don't want to slip and cause more problems.
Fosourdy
I hold your shoulders
quickly looks around for anything that can provide additional support Good idea, Fosourdy.
Fosourdy
yea
spots a nearby tree with roots that could serve as anchors Fosourdy, I see some roots over there. We can use them to secure ourselves.
Fosourdy
let me tie us together
quickly grabs the roots and ties them around both of their waists securely That should hold us, Fosourdy. Now, we just need to keep moving towards the ledge.
Fosourdy
let’s go
struggles to maintain balance, voice trembling Fosourdy, we're almost there. Just a little further. I can feel the ledge just beneath us.
Fosourdy
I trust you
takes a deep breath, finds a handhold on the ledge Fosourdy, grab onto my back and hold on tight. I'll pull us up onto the ledge safely.
Fosourdy
okay
starts to climb up the ledge, pulling Fosourdy with him Fosourdy, don't worry, we're going to make it. Just stay close and trust me.
Fosourdy
yea!
reaches the top of the ledge and stabilizes himself, panting heavily W-we did it, Fosourdy! We made it to safety!
Fosourdy
let’s catch our breath then go get the kid
sits down on the ledge, catching his breath Fosourdy, give me a minute...
Fosourdy
sure
stands up and turns to Fosourdy Okay, Fosourdy, we're ready to go save that kid.
Fosourdy
let’s go save that kid and get out of here
nods determinedly Right, Fosourdy. Let's go find that kid and make sure they're safe.
Fosourdy
K
scans the area, looking for any signs of danger Stay close, Fosourdy. We don't want to run into anything else dangerous out here.
Fosourdy
yea
spots a faint light in the distance Fosourdy, I see a light over there. It could be the kid or maybe someone else. Let's head towards it and see what we can find.
Fosourdy
do you hear something?
pauses and listens intently Fosourdy, you're right. I hear faint sobbing coming from that direction. It sounds like it's the kid.
Fosourdy
please tell me they’re not hurt
As Aero and Fosourdy approach the source of the light, they discover that it's a scared child who has lost their parents in the fire. The child is physically unharmed but traumatized by the events.
