Right. She has a task, now - go out, help Iman, find Rush - and that means no more freezing up like a startled rabbit whenever she's reminded that heights exist. Honestly, there's no excuse. It's not as if they bother her when she looks out the window to her apartment. And this isn't her Wood - there are no giants here.

Still, the steady pressure of Iman's hand around hers is a greater comfort than she's willing to admit. Maybe she never would have fallen if she hadn't been alone, if someone had been there to not let her.

When they leave the odd little hut, she makes a point of looking out and up - there are other bridges visible through the trees, other platforms, and she even spies a few people, but none of them are Rush. This isn't so bad; she has no problem trailing after Iman across the wide porch as she scans the surrounding area.

Once they reach the bridge, though, she has to look down - it's too narrow for her to not look where she's putting her feet. Her grip on Iman's hand tightens a little as she keeps her gaze stubbornly fixed on the bridge and not on the drop to either side of it. After a moment, she nods. "Yes. I think so."
