Location: Edge of jungle, West end of South Beach @kazxraval
Harry lurched through the jungle, wishing the stick-crutch she'd found was a few inches taller. It had been days since she'd broken her leg, or she thought it was broken. It sure fucking felt like it was broken, and the only solution was to wrap it in an earthen cast and not bump it at all. The jungle was full of things that wanted to bump into her. Roots, vines, stumps, branches. Harry was in a foul mood, worse than usual. She was exhausted, pulling up a path from the underbrush so she didn't have to worry about stepping funny and twisting her good ankle and really letting the jungle eat her.
Luckily for her, the southern beach was full of people. They were walking, sitting, running, digging, dancing. Whatever they were fucking doing, Harry could feel it, and she was close. Few hundred yards from the treeline, she reckoned. Then there was some distance between the treeline and the source of the vibrations. But... there were always those people who could hear her approach, the uncanny wind-folk who were the first to point sharp sticks at her and John.
"Hey..." Harry called, her voice hoarse and scratchy from misuse, quiet. She barely spoke, unless it was to herself. Harry cleared her throat and repeated again. "Hey! Some help?" she felt pathetic, weak and useless crying out for help.
'Not weak,' John's voice reassured her. Forty years and she could still remember how her little brother would chide her. 'Can't always go it alone.'
"You don't know..." Harry sighed, smacking her parched lips together. He couldn't hear her anyway. And she was proving him right anyway. "Come on...!" Harry called again, focusing on the people who could hear her, maybe. Harry staggered over to a large tree, leaning back against it and taking some of the weight of her pack off of her remaining leg. "Heeyyyyyy! Just need..."
