Fuck, she saw it too. The Moon Presence was there, resting on the ground. She didn't really like Cynthia that much and she definitely didn't want her to lunge in and attack her friend, but she had to be the only thing that could calm her down. Whatever was going on, way above her paygrade.

But, she heard footsteps behind her, and as she did, Neo breathed in a hiss, darting behind a tree in her run. Two neopolitans split off, both headed towards the lake but putting distance between herself. She couldn't do this another time, and keeping it u p when she was this tired wasn't easy, but she'd get there.

As she raced in, she was waving her hands frantically, causing the great creature to look up and eye the ... three, no, two of them for a second. Neo frantically tried to sign, given that any other form of communication was hard, but thankfully Cynthia was the sort able to read thoughts, wasn't she?

'You have to help her, please!'
