-Zavien-
Once he was tied into the buckles and straps like someone's kinky adrenaline dream, Zavien tried to put his faith in his overeager friend. Giving Koa a nervous smile, he nodded. "Ready!" His voice came out more certain than he felt, but he followed the Dragoon to the edge, using deep breaths and shifting glances to ignore the fact that he was up waaaay too high. The landmass wasn't that far...
Swallowing a dry attempt to wet his throat, he took his first steps off the secure land. Zavien's hands shook and his legs felt like they'd fallen asleep for far too long, but his eyes stayed focused on Koa and where he placed each limb, including each metal clip and anchor. The man may have been speaking, yet the tunneled vision fear had placed on him made it hard for words to filter in. At most questions, he gave a grunted response or curt nod. His breathing and movements became a rhythm, making his petrified mind want to hum away the anxiety. However, not a single tune emerged from the blankness of his mind.
When Koa paused before him, Zavien took a moment to peel his eyes away from the brown rock before him enough to notice their goal just before them. A desperate smile emerged on his face for a single moment, wanting to speed the rest of the way. But a flash of purple gave him pause to listen. They were here to hunt after all. Steeling his voice to avoid any trembling, he asked, "Do you notice anything?"
