Sohalia
The sound that Soh kept hearing tugged at her mind, distracting her from the odd behavior of the gore crow. In any case, the creature seemed to have taken a liking to her, so at least it wasn't trying to claw out her eyes. We take our wins where we can.
The crow rattled its beak and peered around Soh's legs; the girl turned, looking around, trying to pinpoint where the noise was coming from. Behind her, apparently, if the gore crow was to be believed. "Alright, then. Let's check it out." And so she crept forward, lifting a few fronds of a fern out of the way, peering into the undergrowth. The mewling noise did sound louder. Maybe she was getting closer.
Unfortunately, further exploration meant going off the beaten path, and Soh bit her lip nervously. Still, something spurred her on. There was something out there that needed her help - she was sure of it. "Are you coming?" she asked the bird over her shoulder before pushing aside the brush and beginning to pick her way through slowly, all the while trying to reach wherever the noise was coming from.
