We last left Candle with her legs stuck in a hole. Both of her legs are trapped and she cannot move. She tries flailing, kicking, and struggling. Her arms try to pull, push and prod her way out of the hole, but there is nothing that she can do. In order to entertain herself she makes little one liners and jokes to make the best of a bad situation.
She still hears strange noises but brushes it aside as her imagination. It becomes too loud to ignore and when a monster comes along she has no idea if she is losing her mind or if this is real. It starts sniffing her and she hopes that it will be a nice creature.
