For a good while, Layana remained silent and the only noise shared was Jocelyn's paddle dipping into the water and the ocean waves gently lapping and rocking the boat. She tried to focus on other things to help calm herself, like the smell of wood from the boat, or the salt of the sea air, but it was futile as her heart was still racing and her hands were gripping the sides of the boat so hard that her knuckles had gone white, which was evident in the way they glowed beneath the moon light. She was also furiously chewing on the inside of her mouth, and on occasion, her finger nails, too.

Jocelyn kept his eyes focused on the waters as he strained his muscles against the oars. The waves lapped softly around them as they inched their way around the island, trees and cliffs obscuring what lay on the other side.

But the pillar of black smoke could clearly be seen high in the sky, roiling in the distance. Jocelyn grimaced, not looking forward to when they finally rounded the island.

And just like that, the volcano came into view. Half hazed over by dust and ash, the demonic glow of red hot lava peeked out through the black smoke. Occasionally the water trembled around them as it sent another geyser of magma high into the sky.

Jocelyn gulped. "Gods... how are we supposed to fix that?"

Though the chaos erupted around her in endless waves, what really got to her was the fact she couldn't see any of this chaos. And the closer they got to it, the tighter this sensation felt within her gut.

"Maybe... maybe we don't have to," she said, voice hesitant as she tried to search for Jocelyn's silhouette. "What if.. what if we just ... just accepted this and I-"

And that's when the wish bear's eyes flashed brighter.

"The course has been set. Fate is already in motion."

And the cold chill in the put of Layana's belly grew colder and denser as she froze in place at that very idea...
That they had no choice and she had to wonder...

Did they even have a choice from the start?

Jocelyn felt a knot in his stomach as they silently floated closer and closer to the spewing mountain. Soon it towered over their little boat, the immense black cloud above obscuring them in its heavy shadow.

"I feel him," the bear said. Its eyes were glowing so brightly that looking at it hurt his head.

"So... do we have to climb up there once we land?" Jocelyn hesitantly asked, almost anticipating a terrible answer.

The bear did not disappoint.

"Yes. To the top."

Layana grit her teeth, and when the boat bumped against the shore, she nearly leaped out of her skin. They hadn't even begun the trek up the mountain and she was sweating, the warm winds of the sea making her skin feel even more sticky as she released a quivering breath.

"There.. there should be a mountain pass. Well, several of them. It wouldn't be smart to move off the beaten path..."
For there would be dangers there ever lurking. At least the paths had been well traveled. She just hoped they could get up the mountain side before it began to spew out lava. She knew out running that would be impossible. And she began to wonder just how wicked these 'wishes' were that came from the wish bears.

This close to the mountain, Jocelyn could feel heat in the air and tremors in the air. He spent the next few moments gathering his thoughts as he took the length of rope from their little boat. He tied one end around the floating bear, and the other end around his waist until he looked like a child holding a balloon.

"Right," he said, looking back to Layana. That cloth didn't look right around her eyes. Perhaps whatever lay up at the peak of the erupting mountain would be able to fix it.

Offering a hand to her, he said, "Lead the way, my guide."

The path would not be easy, and the terrain easily cut into their feet. It didn't help that, from time to time, some falling rocks from the shaking mountain would come crashing down their path. Thankfully they were able to evade them as they continued the long, arduous crawl up the base of the mountain.

As they moved on, the trees and forests grew thicker, and though Layana had played in these woods for most of her youth, in her current state of blindness, everything felt foreign. Like the strange rain she felt on her back. Rubbing her fingers together, she tried to figure out what it was. Then she realized...

It wasn't snow, but the mountain was raining ash.

This did not bode well. If the mountain was just rumbling, it was one thing...
but ash? It was a sure sign the thing was getting ready to blow.

"We need to hurry."

The wish bear's eyes lit up. "Yes, time is running short."

As if they needed the reminder! But as strange noise caught her attention, and as they began to make their way around the bend- even without being able to see it, she knew something terrible blocked their path-
for before them she could feel the heat and hear the gurgling rush of a lava stream. And it took out the bridge that was the easiest way up to the mountain's peak.

Jocelyn felt the heat even before he saw the bright orange glow of the flowing lava -- and it flowed FAST, taking out not only the little bridge but all the trees and shrubs along the way, spilling over a cliff and down below. Some of it threatened to splash as far as they were, and he quickly yanked Layana out of the way.

"So much for that idea!" he shouted over the rumbling as they ran through a downpour of ash and sideways along the mountain. Most of the terrain was impassable, with sheer rock faces stretching up the side of the mountain that not even the most surehanded of climbers could scale. And from the distance, the smell of burning wood took over the air as distant forests began to burn under the lava flow.

Finally he stopped, mostly to catch his breath but also because they'd come across a rock wall that actually looked climbable -- at least compared to the rest of the mountain. He peered up with a gulp. It was an almost vertical ascent, and any small misstep could mean disaster.

"Looks like this is the only way up, unless you know of a better path," he said sheepishly.

She couldn't see what he meant, even with the enchanted blind fold, but as she took a moment to feel for herself, she felt her heart sink.

"Are.. are we to climb?"

And before Jocelyn could reply, the wish bear answered, "Yes. It is the only way."

Stupid wish bear! If only she could see, she'd glare poisonous daggers at its dumb, painted face!

"Well, I guess the bear's the boss," he said with an awkward laugh before taking a hold of her hand. "Follow me closely and you'll be fine."

The climb up the side of the mountain wasn't too terrible, all things considered. They only had to watch out for the occasional quake and the possibility of falling back dozens of feet to their deaths. Luckily the bear floated up with them as they climbed.

About two hundred feet up, Jocelyn pulled himself up onto a small ledge and helped Layana do the same, panting for breath. "Let's take a quick breather," he said, chest heaving.

The wish bear's eyes glowed red. "He is close."

Jocelyn scowled at the bear too. "Why would a bear be on a mountaintop anyway? This seems like a really stupid place to put it."

The bear hovered in front of them.

"There is a temple hidden away in the mountainside. Where we were worshipped."

Tired, exhausted and feeling as if she just was about ready to cry, at the bear's statement, Layana gave an frustrated huff.

"Were worshiped because you probably continued to trick people into wishes they never would have wanted!"
But even after she said it, she felt only a bit slimmer in her relief. Guilt still knotted her on the inside. After all...
Did not Jocelyn benefit from this, if at least not greatly- even at her expense?


The bear's eyes glowed in reply.

"Our times come and go. We never cease."

Layana's lips curled irritably but she turned away from the direction of the bear. She couldn't wait for this to be over. To wake up and this had all been a dream....

"Yeah, never cease being a pain in our butts," Jocelyn mumbled under his breath, though he made it extra quiet in case the bear did something weird.

With a shake of his head he plopped himself down beside Layana. "Look on the bright side. A little bit further and maybe we can get this whole wish thing sorted out."

Layana sighed.
"Bright side?" she could have cried, despite her smile. "I can't even see if a side is bright or not!" She shook her head and looked up- to see what?S he didn't know- but the bandanna over her eyes was giving her a throbbing head ache. There were too many lines that she found herself taking the thing off in one frustrated tug.

"You will," he said assuredly, though the knots in his gut were beginning to tighten. "And I'll go back to darkness. But it's only fair, since I'm used to it."

He tried to throw on a smile, which probably didn't come out as enthusiastic as he might have hoped. "Besides, maybe I'm getting sick of all these 'colors' and whatnot."

With her eyes now exposed, there was the sparkle of tears at such thoughts, ideas. She turned away, trying to blink them away, but a rumble from the mountain side and a few falling craters reminded her they needed to continue.

"The mountain continues to anger," the bear said.

She threw a glare it's way, then 'looked' to Jocelyn.

"Come on. We should keep climbing, before the mountain throws us back off!"

Picking up the blind fold, she reluctantly returned it to her head- but did a sloppy job of fastening it on.

"Okay, my fake eyes are in place. Can we go now? I'd really hate to be climbing when all of this shaking gets worse!"

Jocelyn nodded numbly and climbed to his feet, brushing his knees off. He looked at the bear.

"How much farther?"

"We are close," came the reply.

And indeed he looked up and, as the black smoke cleared for just a second he spotted ledge up in the distance, whose side was much too flat and patterned to be natural.  Someone had carved it into the side of the rock.

"I see it. We're almost there," he called behind him as he tied the bear back around his waist and began climbing.

The mountain was rumbling, but it was more silent than it had been before. Ashes still continued to snow from the skies and Layana felt her nerves grow tenser.

"Close.." she repeated, dryly licking her lips as she moved to follow Jocelyn. She held onto his arm, hugging it. "How close?" she asked, voice barely over a whisper.

Not being able to see allowed her to focus on other things- like the deeper rumblings in the bowels of the mountain. The very rock was swelling, and she could hear soft hisses of potent gases that wrecked havok on her senses.

"We need to hurry..." she winced as a few sparse rocks tumbled beside the pair and she dodged it by pressing to Jocelyn, close.

"The mountain.... Can you feel it?" she asked, voice still low.

Jocelyn nodded numbly and pulled her closer, watching pebbles bounce past. Each handhold rattled under his palms as they continued their ascent.

By the time they reached the manmade stone platform, the black smoke and ash pouring out of the volcano's crater nearly choked out the thin air.  A cool breeze seemed to push out toward them from the end of the platform, and after helping Layana up, the Serenian turned to look.

The entrance to the temple loomed before them, an arch carved into the side of the mountain and adorned with detailed inscriptions of a long dead language. All manners of wild animals stared back at them from the rock: eagles, bears, wolves, all staring back at them with their stony gazes. The entrance might as well have been encased in glass, the perfection of it. 

The whole place reeked of magic.

And suddenly, Jocelyn forgot their plight.  His eyes widened in awe.  "By the Gods, look at this place! It's... it's untouched! We may be the first people up here in millennia!  And the power coming from it!"

Without even thinking he dashed forward through the mist and toward it.

Layana was still consumed with her fear to catch onto Jocelyn's excitement, but when he dashed off, she gasped in surprised, stumbling along behind him as she tried not to fall.

"Wh-what? What is it? I can't.. I can't see!" she blurted out, trying to look all around, but being inside this shaky patch of ruins had her head pounding worse than it was before. The gases were just nauseating and she had a hard time catching her breath.

"Good heavens, it's amazing!" Jocelyn's voice echoed from inside the smoke-filled entrance to the temple, but soon he reemerged, coughing and wide-eyed but still overly enthusiastic.

"Cover your mouth, it's foul," he said hoarsely, covering his own mouth with his forearm before leading Layana in by the hand.

The entrance was deceptively small for the size of the temple's interior.  It was hard to see just how high and deep the chamber went, with all the acrid smoke rising to the cavernous roof.  But on either sides of them, the entire walls were covered in intricate bear carvings. Thousands of them.
