From within the shadows where no one can see, Elsie smiles knowingly to herself.
As soon as she takes Elsie's hand, Ari will feel a sensation similar to missing a step on the stairs. It's startling, but over as quickly as it starts. Once it passes, she will be looking out from the hole of the tree. All of her has somehow been compacted down into the small space, but she will feel no different to herself. If she tries to wiggle a toe, she will feel it move, even if she cannot see it. There's no pain, no numbness, the sounds around them are as crisp and clear as they always were. The only limitation to her sight is how far she can see from the hole, but if she attempts to stick her head out of it, she will find her vision unchanged.
Elsie's hand squeezes Ari's for reassurance. The wild woman may not be visible inside the blackness of shadow, but she feels solid and warm. The warmth is in her voice as well. "Cozy?"
