I flew from my seat and reached for the bottle. "Ellis wait wait wait! What do you think you're doing!? That's a perfectly good bottle of vodka, you idiot!"
I glanced at you and rolled my eyes with a sigh before I continued to clean the muck and grime from my hands. I still refused to look at Coach since he was the one who forced us to go into the swamp in the first place.
"That's nice kid. Now shut up."
"N-no wait...!" I quickly called out to her, walking forward a bit.
"Like I said... I-I'm not from here. U don't know where to go and I'm pretty sure I am not welcome in this forest. Could you... Maybe help me out here...?"
"That's... That's amazing...! Your father is a god... Wow..."
I shook my head, almost in disbelief, and chuckled slightly.
"O-oh, I forgot... My name is Thaegyn." I extended my hand toward her then hesitantly pulled it back a few inches.
"Wait, can you... Uh..." I mumbled as I gestured at...
I sighed in relief and smiled a bit, taking a few steps toward the girl.
"Uh, th-thank you. I definitely owe you. I can't even thank you enough... How did you get him to leave so easily? He seemed frightened when you mentioned your... Father, was it?"
I screeched a bit and jumped back, staring up at the girl in the tree.
"Y-yeah! I'm a foreigner! I've never been here before, so I-I didn't know humans weren't allowed!"
"L-Lands of Gold...? Wait; have I gotten all the way to the kingdoms?" I replied with a smile and great enthusiasm. I realized this was not very well a good time for such an emotion, but I threw it out there anyway. My eyes gleamed up at the ogre, fear still within me, but I tried to keep it hidden.
I nodded quickly and laughed a bit.
"Yes! Yes I am! So if you'll allow me to pass through and find some more humans, I will be very grateful...!"
Please don't eat me alive.
