Memory

The trio cautiously moved through the forest, their senses alert for any approaching magical beasts. At the same time, they also investigated for any clues that might lead them to Alex.

After the heavy rainfall had ceased, it had left behind a carpet full of wet leaves on the forest floor as well as the long-lasting earthy scent that continued to linger in the air.

Scattered rays of sunlight passed through the thick canopy, casting mottled light on the ground beneath.

As the trio slowly followed the faint trail left behind by Alex, they listened to the sounds of nature coming from all around them.

Birds chirped on the trees and small animals rustled in the underbush. This primal woodland was alive with the buzzing of insects and the occasional distant cries of magical beasts.
