Lex looked about her surroundings for a moment, perfectly at ease in the forest (having a house in the middle of a forest helped with that).

Looking down at the map, it became very clear that she had no idea where she currently was. Hard to find a point of reference on the map when all you could see were trees as far as the eye could see. "Hmm." She'd just have to create a point of reference then. Follow the sun's directions. By the looks of it, the main goal was to head south. If she kept heading south, she'd eventually get to a place where she'd be better able to help herself.

The young woman glanced toward the sky, already mentally mapping the cardinal points and which fit where based on what the sun happened to be doing at the moment.
The sound of snapping of twigs could be heard from a distance but over a bit of time it was obvious the sound was getting louder and closer.

In theory he always thought travelling by Portkey was the worst method to use, but now it was a fact. The blond was certain that a nasty bruise on his leg was developing. Thanks, Muir.

Now ... where in Merlin's beard was he? Pushing himself off the ground, albeit a little sore from the fall, he took in his surroundings. Instinct prompted him to pull out his wand as he took in the field of tall grass he was standing in and a road up ahead, but he knew that magic wasn't supposed to be used in this scenario. It made him feel vulnerable, easy to attack. So he wasted no time in stepping forward. If anything or anyone were to attack, he'd make use of his fist. Maybe a foot.

Minutes passed by. So far, far good. It was just him and the space around him. Regardless, he remained alert. Eyes flicked left and right, his body occasionally swung around to make sure nothing was following him, he even paused to listen for any odd movements. All he could hear was the rustle of overgrown grass and, in the distance, the gentleness of waves.

He was moving toward the water, taking that as a sign of getting out of wherever he was. Eventually, he came upon a path -- going northward, he assumed, would have taken him to a beach whereas the other would have taken him elsewhere, though where the latter would take him he wasn't too sure about. There were a line of trees in the distance that could have been blocking any major, recognizable landmarks.

So he just continued northward, toward the beach. If anything, it'd be a starting point.
As you approach the beach you find a family of muggles gathered on the shore, getting some sun, and building sandcastles.
