Cia trudged through the rocky forest, her feet sore and blistered from travel. Her breathing was somewhat labored. She had hardly had any sleep the past few nights. So far, she hadn't been able to find any mages who could pinpoint a person's location. It was more difficult than she thought it would be, and she sighed. At this rate, I will never find my brother... She leaned against a tree in defeat. If she wasn't well rested, she would most likely fail. She sat down on the cool grass, freezing the morning dew. Her eyes fluttered shut as her breathing evened out. It wasn't very safe to sleep out in the open. However, she didn't have time to find shelter before she would've fainted, anyways.
Right before she fell asleep, a part of her wished that she wasn't so alone.
