River of dead- Part 2

All it took was clunking on the souls head by Rower and the souls had dispersed from the surface of the water. On the Grim's question, Belle's eyes moved to look at him, "I told you I am not dead. I am still a living and breathing person," she said but the Grim reaper was still not convinced.

"Why did the water souls come for you?" asked the Grim Reaper. 

"It is complicated," answered Belle because there was no easy way to say that her soul had torn to another soul because of the scavengers. Pushing one of her hands on the ground to stand up, Belle pleaded, "I need to find my way back to the land of the living. If you could tell me the way to go out of this forest, that would be good too," if what Rower said was true, she was the only one who had come out from the river of the dead.
