Their lack of blame made the shame somehow burn brighter, and if they got out of this mess they’d be hearing more rampant apologies for multitudes of things. For now, they needed to concentrate on getting out of this jam –
She could hear the birds squawking near Zavien ’s shoulder, along the foggy, yellowish murk, and then there was Isla ’s blast of fire simmering and surging nearby. A sudden roar flickered through, enough for her eyes to widen and to nearly stumble along a root in trepidation, but then it seemed to dissipate. “Did that work?” she murmured, uncertain if any of them would hear her anyway.
But then Mittens cried out, and they were able to see the tree in the distance, tall and unyielding through murk and hell, a source of terror in many stories and somehow the beacon in their current one. “Keep it up!” She announced – sending another volley of her compelled birds as she saw something shimmer ahead again…

Isla has hit the lamplighter, and the combined efforts of birds and fire seems to have deterred it…only for it to maybe be slightly ahead of them now.
No post order!
