There was a solemn sort of quiet at the edge of the thorns, the looming mass of twisted brush seemed to shift and creek as it was observed, sounding almost like the rocking of a boat at sea. Here and there a keen eye could catch a glimpse of what might have been a house, or an inn lingering in the harsh grasp. A sign post. A length of wooden board. Like the sea, it had swallowed it up, curling around it all and splintering it all into fragments almost unrecognizable. Now and then, there was a flit of motion. A small brown bird camouflaged by the thick branches, made visible only by it's head tilting this way, then the other, before it flew off.

Lucky for her, Alanna was a very strong climber. All that swords-play gave her incredible upper arm strength. She began moving faster once the thorns crept up behind her.

They continued to creep after, the hollow filling up rapidly behind her.

Once she was free, she wasted no time in putting distance between herself and the thorns. She had learned everything she needed to learn.
