Down the Rabbit Hole

The two women continued to try to navigate the tunnels of the cave in complete darkness. Solveiga had enjoyed the little adventuring on her way down, but now as they tried to find their way back out she felt more aware of the tightness of the space, and the lack of fresh air. She certainly hoped Peregrine knew where she was going, so they wouldn't get lost down here. "Feel free," she replied quietly as the earthen woman said she'd like to pick her brain since she was new to the area. "I like to think I know my way around pretty well. I'm good at remembering places and giving directions, if you need them." She was about to ask the woman what her business was, exactly, but then she was talking about her home. Or rather, her lack of one, which made Solveiga frown a little. Everyone should have some place to call home, a place with which they could associate their childhood, a place they could feel safe.

But, before the sand colored girl could ponder over such thoughts for much longer, Peregrine was changing the subject again in an attempt to lighten the conversation. Solveiga smiled again, one brow raised in curiosity. "Really? Well, could you tell me of some of the wolves you met?" Maybe continuing to talk would kill time while they searched for an exit. But she felt the little rush of outside air at the same time Peregrine did, and she knew they were close. She looked around and thought that she recognized this part a little bit, and she could smell their own scents from when they had come through the first time and she lowered her head a bit to follow them to the mouth of the cave.
