Three days later.
Mark, Elisa, and Krista made their way through the tropical forest without too much trouble.
'Reminds me of the Ninth Floor...'
As they were approaching the border between Lust and Sloth, they decided to take an early break at dusk and try to get some sleep.
Unfortunately, the white-scaled Monster had trouble falling asleep.
It was something Mark was used to, so being unable to sleep rarely annoyed him.
It did this time.
Why?
Because the reason as to why he couldn't sleep was completely different from the usual.
'She...' The white-scaled Monster did its best to keep its body from shaking. 'She's too close!'
Upon deciding to go to sleep a couple of minutes earlier, Mark had let his body fall to the ground.
He had turned onto his right side when,
Crouch-
Sit-
Lie down-
'Huh?' The Monster's eye widened as it stared dead ahead. 'Did she just lay down next to me?'
"Alright. Good night." Elisa said before turning around and lying on her side too.
