Aradia's message came as something of a shock to Feferi. For her, it wasn't all that long ago that she'd seen Sollux, alive and well, before the both of them... Well, towards the end, she could still feel Sollux's life force. She'd been so sure he'd survived. Now, she was learning that no, he had somehow ended up here, and even more than that, he had actually died! Worry was her first instinct, though she soon realized it was pointless, and sadness took over worry's place in her heart.
The fish princess had long since abandoned her shoes, finding that water shoes were pointless on this planet, even with all the mud that'd cropped up recently. As such, her feet were becoming quite the mess as she ran, following the waypoint that Aradia had sent. Mud and dirt squished between her toes, stuck to her soles as she ducked to avoid trees. Once or twice she nearly slipped up, trying to maneuver on dry land like she would underwater, but she caught herself. For the entire trip she didn't fall a single time.
By the time she arrived at the waypoint the rustblood had provided, she was panting, her hair was a mess, and she didn't care a single lick. Her eyes darted around, looking for either life or death. Contrary to her player class, the first thing she spotted was a corpse. A small hiccup left her and she had to swallow hard to prevent tears from falling right away. Her hand came up to cover her mouth as she tried to wrench her gaze away from the fallen Sollux and towards Aradia, whom she could see in her peripheral vision. "So he's really..." was all she managed in the way of dialogue. If she said any more, she might've started crying, and something deep down told her that crying in front of Aradia was simply not an option.
