As the last obstacle on the long journey to the Solar Empire, a seemingly never ending bridge reaching out into the distance. Underneath the bridge, sits a vast stretch of swamp, with what seem like spirits lingering in the water. One would be wise to not stray from the bridge, no matter what the voices tell you. |

[Enter Aibne]
Despite being in the forest for a relatively short amount of time Aibne was already shaking in his shoes as he walked. The depressing scenery and lack of sunlight didn't ease a rising feeling of anxiety and paranoia in Aibne, especially when he came across an ancient-looking wooden bridge. Aibne stared at it and wondered who in their right minds would put their energy into building something in this place, yet he instantly became grateful for it once he saw what it laid across. The journeyman probably could have smelled the swamp before seeing it.
"H-How could a naturally grown forest become so...unsettling?" He asked himself.
Being that he couldn't really think of an answer to his question he simply sighed and put a foot on the first plank of the bridge to test it out. The fact that it didn't instantly collapse was a promising sign, but now it was time for the real test. With much hesitation Aibne began to walk on the bridge, his head turning every which way to see if anything dangerous or suspicious was around him.

The time seemed to go by quickly as Aibne had eventually broke into a sprint when he heard an owl hooting. His personal marathon across the bridge was surprisingly not cause as much dilapidation as he figured it would be, but that could be credited to the adrenaline rush he was going through. It had not been more than a half hour after he started running when he reached the end of the bridge. Putting his hands on his knees and gasping for air he slowly looked back to the long, winding, bridge than forward at the large amount of forest still left to walk through.
"All in the name of peace..." He grumbled to himself as he regained the energy to continue on.

[Enter Alexander]
Drake jogged across the bridge at a steady pace, making decent time. It had taken two days to reach the Pass, and it would most likely take him one or two to get through to the Lunar Empire, not bad for on foot. The man groaned as he took the first step onto the planks. It was obvious he despised this route, but of course it was the quickest way on foot, and he lacked any other transportation. He stays focused on the path ahead of him, ignoring all the spooky bullshit around him. "Okay, the faster I get out of this forest, the better." He increased his speed, almost sprinting down the Bridge now.\
