"Callum, you've been acting weird the past two years. Can you just tell us what's happening?" Soren asked.

I feel like I was a sheep being herded. Everyone was concerned about me. Not that I blame them. I feel like I'm losing my mind. Every inch of my body is agitated.

"Callum, you can talk to us. We've only just begun our journey to the earth elves." Rayla said.

"I'm fine." I say reading.

Everyone looked at me.

"What?"

"What's wrong?" Soren asked.

"Nothing."

"Callum, we know something be up with ya." Rayla said.

"I'm fine."

"No you ain't." She said.

I stood up. 

"That's enough talking. We should keep moving."

Zym tugged me. Yeah, he kind of is a stella way. He kind of came here illegally. But he'll be fine, we'll be fine. What's the worst that could happen?

I then hear a growl, a horrible growl. I look around. There was a large gray mass running through the forest. Rayla drew her swords.

"We're not alone anymore." She said. 

A massive hand shoots out and slaps me into a tree. Ow. I get up slowly. I see a thing twice my size. It had long arms and tentacle like hair all over its body. It had hands long as tree branches. It roared.

"Oops. I think I jinxed it." I say.
