Lorelei's POV: A dream

I sit down on a large rock and tense when something touches my leg. I look down worried as to what it might be when it jumps off me. It takes me a moment to realize: it was a tree frog.

I smile a little and stare up at the trees. A cool breeze blows that soothes my burning skin. I'd been walking for hours to a new spot and I wanted to get there before nightfall. Why didn't I go during the night? I needed to access fresh water.

I sit down and pull out my journal. Without access to a clock, its hard to keep the days together. I write down roads I discover into a map I've drawn, and mark off unsafe areas like downed trees, drop offs and places at risk of crumbling.

I helped a friend out in exchange for a moonlight ring. It's easier being homeless without having to turn into a wolf every full moon.

It rained for 3 days straight and I had to watch witch direction I went towards since a lot of places washed out.

The wind blows making the leaves sway, creating a nice soft breeze as I get dressed.

I thought about getting a tent but I'd rather not bother with the hassle.

Note: Find a new way towards the stream.
