"Away from the thin spot," said Rynth, "We don't want to fall back in and get stuck somewhere else." Soon she slowed to a stop. "The reason you couldn't see me in the other land was because I was not completely there, and nor was I completely here. I was standing in between. I needed you to step forward so I could take your hand and pull you here."
"Oh," said Cynth, "I see, I think."
"We must be silent," said Rynth, "I will explain things when we reach Tante's house, and she will too."
"Who's Tante?"
"Shush."
Obediently, Cynth said nothing until they reached a gnarled old tree, at which point Rynth let go of her hand and scaled the tree without a moment's hesitation.
Cynth took a deep breath, and followed.
