"Professor? Since this is the Impenetrable Clearing, and since we entered with no problems at all, maybe the spirits let us enter without the curse coming to us. That's a possibility. They sensed the great Bloody Baron's intent to bring us in, and they cleared it for us. By the way, are the warriors buried in this clearing, and that could explain the lack of vegitation in this clearing? And, also, this is the coolest place I think anybody has EVER taken us." Benjamin stood close to Jaina trying to make her relax and keep her hair red. He then found it a little enticing to walk the perimeters of the clearing, and grabbed Jaina's hand and walked with her in tow around the clearing. Hmmm, very odd that all the vegetation should be outside of this area, but not in it. I wonder why? There HAS to be a reason for this. "Jaina, I think we are in a circle of death here. There has to be a reson for this lack of vegetation," he whispered to her as they walked and he searched the outer circle for any kind of dangers to the other students or the professor.
