Three heads snapped towards the second burst of light in unison. Gaucho eyed the burning tree directly before him, peering into the light and letting it burn and blur his vision. If something was going to come out ... would it come out here? Or further down? As he contemplated this more light - more fires - began to appear. Whatever it was, it was drawing him deeper in. Perhaps it was a trap, some monster luring him farther and farther away. Even so, Gaucho would not cry off now. Evil slipped far too easily into Helovia, coddled by sympathetic or cowardly minds. Gaucho possessed neither. Whatever darkness hid in the light would be found. He would not be a pawn again.

Picking up an energetic canter, he followed the trail of light. It was Mara who noticed the linear pattern of the ignited trees - Gaucho had been too focused on spotting anything threatening to notice the geometric path they were on.

Sssstraight She whispered into his mind, bringing into powerful focus what should have been obvious - and yes, like others who traveled the path of the beam before - once it was seen, it was painfully obvious. Noticing the darkness took a little longer - Gaucho merely assumed that the washed out aspect at the corners of his vision was just an effect of staring into the burning light. However through Mara and Vorsa's eyes, he saw that they too had noticed the world growing dark even when their gazes were averted from the flames.

Still, he would not cry off. How many others had been in these Woods, seen the burning effigies, and done nothing about it? How long had this darkness persisted? How far did this altered landscape go?

Gaucho would follow the path of light that led into the indescribable darkness. Would he ever make it out? Time would tell; there would be water if ka willed it.

If this is to end in fire
Then we should all burn together
