We had to climb ropes made of vines to get up into that tree house.
With how high up it was, it really burned my arms and legs by the end of it.
I had been doing some training, but this was just too much…It was like climbing up several dozen stories and using a ladder that was even more straining.
What surprised me more was how easily Haley had done it.
I had thought that she would have struggled the most out of the three of us, but she wasn't even out of breath by the end of it. It seemed like I really needed to rethink my evaluation of her in my mind.
Once we arrived, the elders were surprised to see that it was just the three of us.
The one who had been in the middle and had spoken before looked at me to ask, "It's just the three of you? You're not afraid that we'll do something?"
I looked right back at this elder without any fear in my eyes.
Now that we were closer together, I was able to see her appearance more clearly.
