Carlos went out into the storm with his equipment, since the weather was really interesting around Sleepy Peak Peak (what, with Spooky island and that one side of the lake always being covered in dark, foreboding clouds).
As he approached one of the locations of a lightning strike however he paused, seeing a person on the ground. Oh no – did it strike someone?
Carlos hurried over and dropped his equipment to the side to start inspecting the body for life.
“He-hello? Hello, can you hear me? Sir?”
J:
he winced as he laid back, slowly closing his eyes “… I-It feels like
I’m still bleeding somewhere but Ev-Everything’s numb..”“I might have to look around you some more,” Carlos said. “But I’m going to get this cleaned up for you so we have one less thing to worry about.” The numbness might be from bloodloss, but Carlos couldn’t be sure.
J: he groaned, covering his eyes with his free hand and mumbling “Need to hide soon..”
That got Carlos’ attention.
“Hide…?” he asked. “Hide… from what?”
J: “T-The burning bright..” he starts to tremble again
“I.. I”m afraid I don’t understand,” Carlos admitted softly. “What’s the Burning Bright?”
