Avery swallowed hard, nearly terrified. She slowly got up, following Mattius' lead, trying to make not a single sound as she rose. Her eyes were wide, trying to see what was going to come from the darkness that was encrouching around them. Her hand went to her sword's hilt, but she didn't draw her sword just yet.
The dream, was still vivid and very real in her mind. The trees had been reaching out and advancing toward them and then began to attack. There were soon too many for them to fight and were killing off everyone in the party. Kalir and LinGalad had been the first followed shortly after by the elves. Radagast, Ajada and herself were still there. The trees then swooped down on Adaja. Avery saw her trying to fend them off with her sword but it was futile. Avery had tried to help but found herself glued to the forest floor. It was when they attacked Radagast that Avery had woken up.
Avery could feel herself trembling from fear, but was hoping no one would pick up on her unease. Mattius stood nearby and so was LinGalad. They gave Avery strength and she was able to steady herself.
