The trio, minus one, headed through the woods toward the clearing. They were in an old-growth forest, but sections of it had been ruined by an ice storm that came through during the previous winter. For the most part, the walking was easy. Occasionally they would have to cross or go around uprooted trees, but they managed to remain silent.
