Keep going... you got this!

The Great Nothingness lives up to its name, with no sound echoing whatsoever. I guess they just do not want to hear from me anymore, the narrator jests. The adventurer nods in understanding, stepping away from the sapling in response and keep on walking through the path. No need to jump into another one, they quickly decide... but that doesn't seem to be coming true for them. Only a few moments pass the anomaly and over a ridge, they could hear a sound coming from the back and not a moment too soon, there's a rising shadow begin to envelop them since they are walking away from the sun. They decide to stop in their tracks since they could clearly see the shape of it resembling the aforementioned flora. Since they're still approaching them slowly but surely, they need to decide what to do next fast. Should they keep on walking, just stand still or turn around to face it face to face. Tick, tock!

Walk, stop, or turn? Decisions, decisions! In the end, they decided to...?
