Zel frowned as Sigrun's question continued to bother him. "Actually," he said, "Ahmaht may be in his room..." he paused, then shoved his bag of groceries into Sigrun's arms, "I'm going to go look for Larea. Hang on to this for me."<br/><br/>Zel took off, though he honestly wasn't sure where he was going. She couldn't have gone too far from the town, she wouldn't when it was getting this late... Especially since these attacks of hers seemed fairly regular.<br/><br/>As he was walking down the street he noticed the hills running next to the town. Hills seemed... like the kind of place someone like Larea would just go to sit and think. Thinking it worth a shot, the stone man made his way over toward these hills.<br/><br/>***<br/><br/>The hills went farther than he originally guessed. After getting to the top of the first big one, he could several more. Looking down, a small lake was visibly nestled between a group of hills. Figuring it couldn't hurt to check, Zel descended the hillside until he was right next to the lake. This was when he noticed there was someone there.<br/><br/>Zel could see Larea's blond hair just over the surface of the lake. She was facing away from him and his first instinctive thought was,<span style="font-style: italic">Oh god. She's had another attack and now she's drowning!</span>Zel immediately panicked, running over to the lakeside, shouting out, "Larea? Are you okay?"
