I heard people speaking faintly, I stir around a bit. It catches their attention, I can feel their eyes burning through me. I sit up and groan loudly in pain, forgetting where I was for a second. I peek over my shoulder, I see the group of men staring at me. My eyes widen in embarrassment. 

"Oh, hi-" I say awkwardly, immediately turning my head away. 

"Hello," A brunette man says as he stands up, fixing his dark blue coat. The first thing I notice is his height, he looks serious but kind. Still intimidating, though. "How are you feeling?" 

I almost miss his question, my thoughts are spinning, and my head is aching. "I'm better than before," I pause and look around. I seem to be on a cot, and the cut on my arm is bandaged. I look up to my left and see a tall poll over me. They even have an IV running for me. "Did you guys set all of this up?"

"Oh yes, you can thank Fundy and Tubbo for that." He flashes a smile while holding his arms out, pointing to the fox looking man from earlier, and a tensed up younger boy. 

I smile at them. The boy looks relieved by my gesture, waving excitedly in return. I turn back around to see the taller man, now in front of me. I almost jump. 

"So, my name is Wilbur, but you can call me Wil if you'd like," He tips his hat. "Now, how can we help you? You've seemed to show up on our lands, and faint the moment the gates are opened." He's extremely intimidating, even if he's not trying to be. I feel like I'm being interrogated. The way words flow out of his mouth makes me want to run away from him.

I touch the back of my neck, feeling embarrassed for causing such a scene. "Yeah, sorry about that," I try to avoid eye contact with him as much as possible, but I can feel him burning into me. "I was kind of a mess, thank you for helping me. I really appreciate it." 

"Of course, it was no problem. But may I ask, what are you doing here? I know your house was burned in fires, but why show up here?" He looks away for a second, thinking. "You are aware we're in the middle of a war, right?"

His words don't hit the first time. They pass-through me, I take a moment to think about what he's just said once more. 

A war? What- with who? We're literally in the middle of the woods-

I start spiraling. I have way too many questions, my headache only grows. Before I make my brain explode, I speak up. 

I turn towards Fundy, "Wait, what was that green guy's name again?"  

"You mean Dream?" 

"Yeah him." I fall back into silence, staring at the white cloth ceiling. 

Fundy did say Dream set their forest ablaze. Could he be the guy they're at war with? Was my house burning down, caused by all this? Was I just caught in the crossfire of their war? 

"What even happened- what are you even fighting for?" I blurt out, I feel quite embarrassed as I see Wilbur smile at my questions in response.

"Well you see, we've started a revolution." He crosses his arms, making me feel like I'm being lectured. "The land you're on right now, this is L'manburg. We want our freedom." 

"So what's Dream's deal- Why is he involved in this?"

He chuckles, "Honestly, good question. We couldn't tell you if we wanted to-" He's cut off as a tall blonde boy marches in quite loudly. 

"YOU'VE LET A WOMAN INTO OUR BASE?" His eyes look to be popping out of his head, he looks angry. I almost yell back at him, but that wouldn't be a very good first impression on these people.
