*Whoosh-Crash!*
Zenon and Aurea finally managed to get out of the tunnel. Pure darkness reigned over them for one more hour before seeing the first rays of sunlight.
In fact, it wasn't until some minutes later that they realized the tunnel was actually an enormous root! It seemed like it was completely burned through.
"I can officially rule out going to the beach. Not exactly the place I expected to do so, though."
Zenon stepped down from the root and landed on top of the grayish sand. His feet went a little bit inside the dune, but it didn't restrict his movement.
He was hoping for the sand not to get inside his boots though. If he hated little pebbles and dirt making their way through - somehow - then sand would be his archenemy.
Aurea followed his tracks and jumped down as well. She took a deep breath and said,
"Been a while. Brings back memories."
