Cassandra finds herself looking to the old woman as they sink. As she speaks something...strange occurs. The face isn't quite right, almost as if...
And then she sees it. The horrible visage beneath. Predatory eyes. Sharp teeth. The half elf hears a scream as they descend. She failed to realize it was her until earth, kicked up from the sink, flies into her open mouth. She coughs and gags, the noise subsiding, but the panic burning. Away. I have to get away. Her heart becomes hammer blows now, rhythmic and crashing. As she slides to level ground, the coiled spring of her muscles release, and she began a sprint. To where she isn't sure. But all she knows was she couldn't stay here. Her lungs ache and burn in protest, the dirt only finally dislodged, causing coughing as she runs. She thinks she might hear something else in the air, something her more rational mind might have cared about, but her ears only hear the drumming of her own heart.
