Hold me I'm scared

Jynn watched as Ophelia nodded rapidly, confirming that she was ok despite her odd behavior. Jynn's large ears swiveled one way and then another as she tried to pick up any sounds of predator or prey that might be pressuring the youth to keep silent. Suddenly a rush of words spilled from Ophie's mouth as she explained that the air was purple. Jynn stared. Purple? What? She didn't see any purple but she hadn't looked that hard because the blinking blue lights, like fireflies had caught her attention. But they couldn't be fireflies, surely. It was the middle of winter! Her fur was standing on end and as Ophelia suggested they leave it was Jynn's turn to nod.

"Yea, yea, I agree. I don't think we should be here." Maybe these ghosts were gathering for a party or something and she didn't want to be in their way. Jynn leapt forward, breaking into a run. She raced through the swamplands, fighting mist as she struggled to keep her direction. She glanced behind her to make sure Ophelia was keeping up. As much as ghosts spooked her she wouldn't abandon the yearling.
