The light of all the lanterns made it easier to see everyone. Catching the last bit of Emily's statement, Jared gave her a faint smile.

Lulu had a point. Personally, Jared preferred the potentially deadly over the creepy, even if he had never gone out of his way to seek either. Okay, once or twice. But not sans a reason [or reasons] that justified the act.

In the eerie quiet, the noise echoed.
There was not enough space between the trees for all the students to pass through at once, so Jared brought up the rear, the light of the lantern not dazzling but covering a large expanse, so that he could see all the students in front of him. Once the students had all stepped into the clearing, he cleared his throat.

"We'll stop here, for a bit," he said. "This clearing is known as the Impenetrable Clearing." The Impenetrable Clearing of Death, actually. It occurred to him that the actual Latin name sounded for the place sounded much fancier. "As the stories go, this part of the Forest was once home to a tribe of warriors. Enemies wiped it out, but the 'curse' of the tribe hangs over the clearing where their councils occurred - no human or creature can enter, and those that attempt to defy the curse and enter, are injured or die mysterious deaths."

"But all of us could enter, and quite easily. What do you think this tells us about this myth?"
