In Blackened Maws

Archer, while on a calming expedition through the mountains of Washington, has found himself horribly lost. Thankfully, he's packed some of the essentials, but without any idea on how or even if he can get back, he doesn't know how long he can make it.

Yet he isn't as alone as he might've thought. He quickly discovers a strange, midnight black humanoid creature with white x's for eyes, one that goes by Xena. Archer, as desperate as he is, has no choice but to follow her through the woods in the hopes of getting home. However, as he learns more about just what she is, he begins to find himself wondering just how dangerous his new companion is.
