- Spoiler:
Only few were able to travel through the forest and keep their sanity (if they had any) and those people were those marked to the guild of Savage Skull.
One of such guild members stood within what looked like it might once have been a river, leaning against the edge of the little cliff as she awaited for those she had summoned to arrive. She had sent word to Za'cha, her fellow member of the Celestial Dragon team to join her here at these co-ordinates. He usually listened to her when she sent out messages like that... however the other two, she was skeptical that they would actually show up. Hiro Villen and Lillith... two other members of Savage Skull that she fully intended to join herself and Za'cha on their mission, even though their interests differed from their own. They were all importnt playing pieces in her game... and unless she brought them together, the game would never reach completion.
Her new demon pet, Kuro, had gone off to fetch both Hiro and Lilith, instructing them through his telepathy to follow him back to his master.
However, as she waited for the others to arrive, she could hear the snarl and breaths of the creatures guarding her. They would need a much more private place to speak. She knew the beasts wouldn't attack the members (unless they betrayed Save Skull) but she didn't trust them in the slightest.
