CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

"This map looks like it was drawn by a five-year-old," muttered Farr, flipping the paper over a few times to figure out where they were.

The Lund wasn't making the map any easier to read. Trees were in every direction around them, their heavy and plentiful leaves blocking out most of the sunlight. Everything looked more or less the same. The only thing they knew for sure was that they had been walking for roughly six hours.

Hopefully, those six hours were in the right direction.

"I don't like this," said Khuwa, the orc walking with one of her giant axes in her hand. That was rare. The orc continued to wear her armor and weapons out of respect to the culture that she grew up with, even if she ultimately disagreed with their blood lust and need for war. For her to actually be prepared for a fight meant that she had learned from her first encounter with the Lundori.

"What's not to like?" asked Yri dryly. "We're only deep in a hostile area, surrounded by strange plants, and have no idea where we are or how far we are from Death's Eye."

"Which is a lovely name in itself," added Cupcake, floating a foot above the warlock.

"Even I am a bit uneasy," admitted Grex, glancing over his shoulder every few steps.

"Why?" asked Farr. "We already know your druidic powers still work here."

"The trees give off a strange aura to me," admitted the gnome. "I'm afraid that if I call upon them they might not respond, or worse. It's not out of the realm of possibility that they would join the Lundori in attacking us. Of course, I haven't tried to do so yet. Maybe now would be a good-"

"No," said Farr, Yri, and Khuwa in unison.

"Probably for the best," nodded Grex, smiling to himself. "On top of the trees, the creatures here are... different."

"I haven't seen any animals," remarked Khuwa. Farr also hadn't, and for that matter hadn't even heard any rustling since they entered the Lund.

"They've seen us," replied the gnome. "And again, I'm not so sure if I can convince them to help us like I can the usual wildlife."

"So that just leaves you with the ability to manipulate the ground," said Farr, making a mental note for any future fights in this place.

"Perfect," sighed Yri. "There's a good chance that we'll have to fight off an army of Lundori on our own, and one of us can't even use half of their abilities."

"But surely someone as powerful as you can take them all by yourself," said Cupcake, rolling his eyes.

"I never said such a thing," said Yri, crossing her arms. "Fort Pel was different."

"Besides some buildings, I don't see how," said Cupcake. The flying pig spun around and continued to float backwards as the rest walked. "You just can't hit moving targets, is that it?"

Yri held up a finger and pointed it at the demon. "I guess we could find out right now, couldn't we?"

"Calm down, you two," said Farr.
