Tessa could barely believe her eyes. She'd barely been walking for five minutes since the short pause, but before her stood an entire city, which had seemed to appear out of nowhere. How she had missed it on the horizon, she couldn't figure out, but she didn't much care at this point, and she trudged forward, past the sign that she couldn't read, only hoping that someone in this place had water.

As she walked, she started to wonder if she truly was lucky... it seemed not a single soul lived here, despite the warm glow it seemed to give off. Of all the places to see in this place, she found herself drawn to a large statue, all of which she could not yet see. As she approached, she thought she heard voices, though she couldn't make out what they were saying.

She blinked repeatedly as she got into the clearing around the large statue, an angel perhaps, thinking that she could make out a cat-like woman standing in the dimmer light near the edge of the area. She ignored it, passing it off as the effects of severe dehydration, and turned instead to the man and woman near the stone table at the foot of the statue. "Water?" was all she got out before letting herself fall forward slightly onto one knee, barely managing to keep from passing out.
