The corners of Ben's lips curled upwards at Theresa's tale. Didn't like how things were, so she left.

[b]"I like that."[/b] Ben stated. He puffed some smoke out of his nose again and turned his head upward to look at the sky above them. [b]"Where I am from, horns mean war has begun."[/b] Ben stated. He very, very much hoped that he was wrong in this scenario.

As they walked together, making small talk and keeping an eye out for each other, they found themselves moving upwards at an incline. They were obviously gaining altitude compared to their position when they beached themselves. But the foliage around them was beginning to thin. Light was shining through the treetops in greater quantities and eventually, they came upon a cliff's edge. Ben peered his head over the edge at the waves crashing against the stone and then peered out at the great blue sea. But then something else caught his attention. A sea stack, larger than any he had [i]ever[/i] seen. So large buildings and structures had been carved out into it's side. Beings could be seen milling about on the landform. His eyes followed the sea stack's face and came upon a bridge created by a small connecting landform. This was new to him. He leaned outward, craning his neck to see that there had been a boardwalk constructed just along the forest's edge for those wishing to enter the settlement. Ben tapped Theresa on the shoulder and pointed outwards. More the likely from an angle she couldn't see very well at her height.

[b]"There's a path leading to that settlement over there."[/b] Ben said, moving his finger to point at the sea stack. He then set off in the direction of the path. He had some things he wanted to attend to in that place, if he could. He had no idea where he was, but his plans might help keep him alive long enough to get to a place where he did.
