Either one of them could have said, "Let's turn back," and the other would have gladly agreed. Foggy as it was, they could see decently well through the dark and the mist thanks to the single flashlight they had between them. Tumbling downwards, they both let out a shriek of fear as the ground gave way. Horrendous spiders glided down on silken strings to where the two girls lay in a terrified heap on the damp ground, a beam of moonlight faint through the fog cut it's way through the darkness from the opening they had fallen through. Juniper yelped when she noticed the massive arachnids descending upon them and grabbed for Carlie who was searching for the flashlight she'd dropped. Quests were supposed to be something fun, not terrifying, thought Juniper as she clung desperately to Carlie, tears welling in her eyes. "Iron," Carlie shouts at Juniper from beneath her, "They can't touch iron, June!" Officially sobbing in fear, Juniper tries desperately to retrieve the iron blade from her belt. Painstaking measures were taken to ensure that the blade had been carried with them since it was the only thing that could kill the eight-legged monsters. Goddesses and Gods alike watched in amusement as Juniper flailed with the knife in her hand, hoping beyond hope that she managed to kill even just one of the creatures that seemed to want to eat her and Carlie so badly, only just managing to kill one of the things, frightening the rest back, and ending the quest.
