Clik felt as if she would fall of "Uji don't strain yourself too much" she warned him

"Be careful, we're about to enter the trails. Keep calm, look straight forwards, and walk forwards. There will be shades that will try to trick you. We don't get humans here very often, so the trials basically are meant to keep out any intruders. The actual dragon complex lies beyond the trials." The tunnel slowly darkens and you feel you enter a cavern, even though you can't see anymore because it was so dark. Suddenly, you feel a cool feeling surround you, and the dragon doesn't seem to be by your side any more. It all seems like your were alone in the middle of a vast, dark, cold nowhere.

Close my eyes and put my hands out, sliding my feet along the ground and try not to think of anything

Uje steadied himself a bit and continued to gallop. It seemed you were now slowly gaining on the woman.

I hung on tightly....

You remember the dragon told you to walk straight forwards. As you shakily advance, you hear clanking and scraping around you, like the sound of chains. You hear scratchy voices call for help, as if the cavern is full of prisoners. Something from your right grabs onto your leg.

Uje's going too fast to stop and unfortunately, trips over a branch. You fly off his back and land harshly in front of him. He whinnies a sorry and looks sadly in Mother Earth's direction.

"Ow.." i rub my head and elbow

The forest was really dark. A thick layer of mist covered the ground, and it clung to you as you went. Your surroundings got darker and darker, until you plunged literally into blackness. You could see or feel anything nearby you, including your companions. You were all alone, the mist swirling around you, clinging to your clothes like the hands of the dead.

(AHA LotD reference!)

(??)

She kept on walking, taking a deep breath and trying to hear or feel them

Uje came over to you and nudged you with his muzzle.

You hear hissing sounds around you and you can make out faint words, "Heeelllpppp... ussssss...."
