With Ayawamat at my side, we appear on a cliffside high atop a mountain, standing at the entrance of some cave. The cliffside has a scenic view of the surrounding forest; a sea of lush colour that stretches on for miles until it reaches the ocean on the horizon.
Orenda would love this view.
I’m startled by the sudden thought that infiltrated my mind. Why did I just think that? How the f**k would I know what Orenda loves? I don’t know her any more than I know myself, and I’ve come to realise I am still a stranger to myself. I shake away the unruly thought and focus back on the cave, becoming aware of the magic exuding from within.
“How exactly can this cave help find your sister?” I question sceptically.
Ayawamat rolls his eyes and steps inside. I heave a sigh and follow in behind him.
