Fox spoke up. “We’re almost there. Look, it’s basically all Gravewood trees now. I think I went this way here…”

The dry brown leaf floor of the town proper has been replaced with freshly-fallen leaves the abyssal color of burning rain, white veins sticking out of ink-black blades like bones. The air noticably chilled, now adding a trace of mildew to the earthy scent of the woods. Darkness swelled around the██████m. Far above, the Gravewood trees bury the sky, a thick silver canopy that only lets a mere trickle of sunlight through.

“Hey, I think that's it!” Fox pointed at a distant wooden structure, barely visible in the darkness. He dashed towards it, leaving the girl█ behind.
“Huh. that’s pretty big for a shed,” Lily said to herself.
