Where Kismet was left wondering if perhaps somehow he'd led them off the path and the real one was still around somewhere Azalea didn't seem fussed at all by the apparent dead end. With no comment she moved onwards and began to push some of the long grass out of the way. "The jungle is a place of many secrets. Not everything is obvious." So they would have to go through all the leaves and things! Now not so troubled by the disappearing path, the young boy made a note of such things, he could check for himself next time before worrying whether or not there was still a path.
"We are on a game trail, meaning the land animals walk here a lot. There is water ahead, and all animals need water." Before Kismet could ask her just what a game trail actually meant, Azalea quickly continued to explain it. "Why is the water hidden though?" If everyone needed it surely it shouldn't be such a secret? Maybe Soren's tidying skills would come in handy after all, someone to clean up these paths and make it more obvious where important places were.
Slipping past his mother again, Kismet continued along the path, the walk through the grass slightly more difficult for his shorter legs though not impossible. At last they came to a clearer area again, sensing his mother tense and not too sure on the noises from the strange creatures Kismet began to feel a little uncomfortable as well. "What are they?" He kept his voice a little quiet, not wanting to draw too much attention to himself as they began to climb the trees.
