Phantom Hollow it's a bit of a pain

This place was awful. Back in Torbine he at least had area to fumble about and not to mention the giant sea to stare at if he ever felt closed in. Here....well, everything was so tightly knit. It didn't help that Tilly was practically herding him like he was some sort of prey.  The Lyall was pretty sure he was going to lose it if he didn't break free of the trees soon.

"Are you, like, absolutely positive we're supposed to be going this way?" Rust brows digging together with obvious frustration. "We should probably get back to the others too." He huffed as his shoulders sagged. Bojay was sure he had passed this tree a hundred times.

"'Course 'm positive." She sneered before giving her larger brother another headbutt. Had Tilly ever led her family astray or caused them harm? Well, okay. Serious harm? Not at all. The girl knew her current limits and what good would she get from injuring them? She rolled her eyes with a huff. Perhaps she should have dragged @Sterling aside or even wrangled up @Jayseden. Those two would have likely done better with her than her overly energetic brother.

"Think I see a clearing jus' up ahead." It was half a lie and half a truth. She saw something up ahead but had no real clue if it was a clearing. Either way it would likely prompt her brother to move his rear a bit faster.

Pale eyes rolled at her confident reply. Bojay felt like his sister was always too sure of herself. But he didn't dare voice an opinion on that because surely it would bring a fury akin to the scoldings he received in Torbine. Which would be the biggest bummer ever.

He perked up a bit at her comment of a clearing. "For real, Til?" Bojay picked up the pace, trying to break free of the trees grasp. Maybe there was a clearing up ahead. Perhaps they would bump into everyone else too and could keep moving to wherever their mother had gone. Which brought forth a question from the rowdy Lyall.

"Have you smelled any more of Ma? Dad?" Or anyone else who might be a sight for sore eyes.

She smirked as Bojay picked up his pace. Good. They would finally getting moving at a pace that was better suited to the leggy Archer-Lyall. She had no problem with headbutting him along but it would surely save her a future headache. "Yeah, fer real." The girl encouraged him further.

At his question she gave a soft hum. As far as Tilly was aware, all the siblings had smelled the same thing. That was if one of them wasn't hiding any information. "Nah. Maybe they covered their tracks ta keep us on our toes." It seemed like a lot of work but wasn't that what this whole thing was about? Working together and working on their skills just to find their parents. Ugh. Maybe she should have just stayed back in Torbine.

He believed her. Every ounce of it. Perhaps that was showing his desperation for a way out, though. He kept pushing onwards despite the way things looked. The trees still seemed tightly knit and pale eyes couldn't pick out a true clearing. Bojay wondered if he could make his own clearing. What kind of weight did it take to knock down one of these trees? Certainly between his sister and him there'd be enough pressure. Right?

A groan slipped free from him at Tilly's words. He really hoped she was wrong this time around. Bojay doubted his other siblings wanted to hear that kind news.

"Hey, if you're so sure of this clearing you saw," He halted his walking to toss a glance back at Tilly. "why don't you lead the way?" The Lyall sharply suggested with a raised brow.

She about ran into her brother's rump when he halted so soon. Her face crinkled for a brief moment before he gave her a typical Bojay look. Without a word, she pushed herself past him to take the lead. Tilly set the pace at a brisk jog. If he wanted her to lead so badly than he would have to follow her.

Lucky for her, she had the build closer to their lean mother while her brother seemed to take more after their father. It could be fun to test his agility. She mused about it briefly, wondering if he might want to get payback in the form of one of his pranks. Which, in her opinion, were typically in poor taste.

Perhaps he had been a bit wrong to offer her to take the lead. "Hey! Tilly! Slow down some, won't ya?" He did his best to jog after her as she slunk through the trees with ease. It wasn't his fault he had inherited their father's beefed figure and she didn't. Bojay could feel the loose twigs reaching and combing his thick fur. When they got through this mess he was for sure getting her back.
