บท 135: Meeting up with the forest lady

As Blake retraced his steps back to the spot where he had encountered the mysterious woman, his mind buzzed with anticipation and curiosity. The memory of their brief but intense interaction lingered in his thoughts, urging him forward in his quest for answers.

Navigating through the dense foliage, Blake's senses heightened, attuned to the subtle sounds of the forest around him. The gentle murmur of a stream caught his ear, drawing him closer with each step.

Finally, he emerged into a small clearing bathed in dappled sunlight, the tranquil surface of a babbling stream cutting through the lush undergrowth. It was the same spot where he had encountered the enigmatic woman just the day before.

As Blake approached the stream, he couldn't shake the feeling of déjà vu that washed over him. The scene before him seemed unchanged, frozen in time like a snapshot from his memory.
