I'll be close behind.
She had wandered to all corners of the Inbetween, searched every burrow and all the hollows, walked to the bottom of the wispy lake, climbed and lived in the trees and yet she always stayed away from the centre. It was bad this time, worse than before, so she started towards the middle of everything. She took the last step, over the moss crack and suddenly, everything changed. The trees once lush and vibrant were now dead and crushed, the moss had left, there was no light, no comfort and before her, the path rose up and contorted until there were two separate trails. At the end of one there was her family and a hospital bed waiting, the other was completely black, nothing could be seen. She only took a second to decide. She walked into the darkness, into the end.
