Several hours later.
Huff, huff!
The sun was beginning to set and visibility had begun to decrease. Running through the jungle drenched in sweat, a man, a bison, and two women were gasping for air while dragging another unconscious man on a stretcher.
It was naturally Ikaris, Malia, and Ellie. The wheezing noises were mostly coming from Ikaris and his bison friend.
Not even thirty minutes after leaving Karragin, they had been caught by the Crawlers and the hunt had begun. Ellie had never been much of a sportswoman and had not exactly eaten her fill in the last few days, so she quickly became a burden.
In the end, it was decided that Ikaris would carry her on his back while Malia would take his place to hold the stretcher with the buffalo.
