Scratching an itch behind your right ear, you gave the road a more detailed look, black - dark ground had parted the usual gathering of dark-green leafclad behemoths lumbering above you, their branches stretching tall into the sky, like a child asking their mother to pick them up, the ground was hard as steel here, it made walking uncomfortable, but it was refreshing you mused while giving the ever blue sky another look to not have to worry about bumping into something for a change, it reminded you of walking on a ship, which was in and off itself a very comforting feeling.
Smoothing out the blue robes you carried, pondering slightly about how best to deal with the tear in the fabrics side you nearly don't notice as you scan the world around you - it was not strange really, (you'd grown accustomed to the odd sights and felt it slightly overwhelming, trying to focus on details left you with a headache at this point) that you did not notice her, first a spec on the side of the road, resting against an usually close tree - indeed, most of those wooden beings where a good five meter from this black-rock ground you walked on, this one however, a bone white one with no leafs to speak off was closer, its branches nearly hanging over the "corridor" you where walking in. Soon, however the spec grew into the shape of a person - a person leaning towards the tree, head down towards the ground, chin resting on her chest.
It was a girl, about your age - her body drenched in sweat, she does not seem to even notice you as you now stand just about a meter from here - stuck in her own world as she leans towards the tree, breathing rather heavily, obviously exhaustion had overcome her.
>What do we do?
>Call out.
>Inspect bone-white tree, is this planet mold?
>Continue on our way, dinner!
>Rest alongside girl, the tree looks comfortable.
>Other.
