Elora feels her body shift between scared, happy, melancholic, and at peace with her surroundings, surrendering to the vivid landscapes before her. By the end of it she finds herself waking up to the light poking and prodding of Pip in what must be the early morning, or early for the sanctuary at least.
"...What is it Pip?" She wipes her eyes, seeing that Pip is now fluttering close to her before flying off a short distance, looking at her expectantly.
"Does that mean follow?" She says to herself. Heading after the bird she finds herself almost lost in the seemingly endless forest, finding him standing on a fairly large rock. He pecks the rock once, stares at her, then pecks it again.
"...Okay." And so she gets on the rock sitting criss-crossed.
And then, Elora isn't quite sure what happened next. She and Pip were looking straight into each other's eyes, never breaking concentration for what felt like hours, but it couldn't have been that long. Throughout it all Elora swears she saw the very edges of something otherworldly, beyond her comprehension, sometimes a strike of color or shimmering symbol, but for the life of her she couldn't take her eyes off of Pip. Suddenly she felt the visions stop, her focus returning to normal. Pip cocked his head and flew off, back in the direction of the others.
"...What just happened?" Without an answer Elora heads back, thoroughly confused.
