Into what is probably danger

Bellamy had seen and lived through a great many things but what had started the night prior had been one of the strangest she had endured yet. The darkness was consuming, a hungry beast that covered the land as she and Acere retreated to the safety of the ship. Tremors came, violent things that shook the S.S. Antiox from where it lay, and Bellamy feared it might even break from the ice. She curled closer to Acere, taking breaths, ears pricked as she kept her gaze on the window despite it offering no insight to what was happening to the world. She had heard rumors of the ooze and the eruption… could this land once more be angry enough to cause chaos to spread? Dawn came, and with it a strange, eerie glow that had Bellamy rising to her paws. With a nudge to Ace, she urged him to follow her, her paws leading her out towards the west.

What they encountered was not what Bellamy expected. The land itself was just as strange as the light from the sky. Tall stone spikes, not even solid all the way through, were thrust toward the heavens and were bleached as bone. The glow from the sky even made the plant life look and feel strange. Bellamy slowed, the push to get here leaving her sides heaving and the old woman winded. Her gaze flicked to Acere, ears pinning against her skull. "What do you make of it...?" The oddity of it had her stomach churning. "This land... it looks like it has been here for ages... yet..." She had never seen it. Had he? He had been in Boreas longer than she had.

"Speech," 'Thought.'
