The feeling of familiarity was strange for Murkel. It wasn't because he was back in the world of Pagna, but because he was back in the dimension filled with deadly beasts in every corner.
He had only regained control of his real body for a few seconds in Pagna before it had been taken over by the beast and he had been shoved into the back of its mind.
However, now that Murkel was back in his body, he was also back with a body filled with injuries. The pain was soaring through his body; just moving a small part sent shockwaves through the inside of his body.
He knew, though, that staying in such a place, staying still, was a dangerous idea. Walking slowly, placing one foot after the other, Murkel could hear the sounds of beasts up in the trees. He could feel their presence following him, but the moment he looked at them, they would quickly scurry away. Eventually, Murkel found himself at the base of a cave right by a large cliffside.
