It is the Only Way
However, the moment she enveloped him in a tight hug, the hairs on the back of her neck stood, and her heart quickened as an inexplicable tension filled the air.
Without warning, a crackling sound echoed. The ground beneath their feet shook violently, and loose rocks and debris tumbled down the cliffside, adding to the chaos.
A deafening roar echoed as the air started to move in a circular motion, slowly becoming a dark swirling vortex that seemed to lead to nowhere. The wind grew stronger, tugging at their clothes and hair.

Rosalind could feel the energy that crackled in the air. It was stranger, otherworldly, its sounds making her skin crawl.

Rosalind stared at Lucas when she heard his voice.
"Do you understand me?" he asked. This time, she nodded.
As if on cue, the vortex opened wide enough and swallowed Rosalind and Lucas, pulling them into its dark embrace with a sickening lurch.
