Summary
Unfortunately, ten days of isolation with nothing to distract him, allowed Aaron to brush aside Andrew’s warnings. The loneliness emboldened him to go outside, to go further beyond the meadow and into the forest. He’d been so sure that he could find his way back easily that by the time he admitted he was lost he did not even recognise the plants around him in comparison to the ones that grew by the cottage.
Following the river felt like a good idea. It would either guide him out of the darkening forest or towards civilisation. What he planned on doing after that, well he didn’t even get that far. Although he could not see or feel the sun beyond the thicket, the quickly encroaching nighttime made itself well known. It wasn’t his fault that he didn’t see the chasm in the ground, by then his eyes were so useless he was navigating with his ears.
Or
Aaron should have listened to Andrew when his brother told him to just stay in the cottage.
