>You grab the backpack from the trunk and swing it over your shoulder.
"It's not much further now, just up that hill.", you say, pointing at a crude dirt trail leading up through the forest.
>A look of sheer horror washes over your companions face.
>You reprimand yourself in your head; Of course, how could you forget?
>Kneeling down before her, she turns to look at you as you smile.
"I know you don't like... Dirt. So would the lady allow me to, ehm, escort her?"
>At first, confusion is all you see, then as she takes notice of your arms extended towards her, she understands.
>"Oh no, I simply couldn't ask you to do that..."

>She eyes you with disbelief. "-This- is it? But Anon, darling, this is nothing. Just more... Nature."
