"Alright, getting there," Elias said before pulling off the road onto a patch of dirt that was a makeshift parking lot.
Forest surrounded them on either side, but Elias acted like they weren't really in the middle of nowhere. "Let's go."
Alyssa slipped out of the car, looking confused until she saw a trail leading through the trees up ahead. She glanced over at him with a curious look.
"How'd you come across this?" she asked.
"Through a whisper," Elias replied with a wink before offering his hand to her. Once she took it, he led her down the path and farther into the words.
Alyssa hadn't been out in nature like this in a while. She definitely overdressed, but the surprise still laid ahead.
She ventured down the dirt path, passing by vibrant greenery and tall trees. Soon, she heard a light roaring sound up ahead.
"What's that?" she asked. She was almost nervous to find out because anything could be deep in this forest.
