They don't get much of a chance. From a group of trees nearby, a small child comes running through, heading for the glowing woman. She turns towards him slightly, the lights that make up her face shifting slightly to appear sharper and more aquiline.
He's about a metre from her when another voice rings out: "Lyman!" He stops abruptly, as an older boy, in his early teens, runs up to him and lightly nudges him back.
The older boy pads past him, wrapping his rather oversized coat around himself tightly, and extends a hand out towards the woman. She pauses, before reaching down to take it. The boy goes pale for a moment, and looks rather like he might collapse, and then the blue lights that make up a woman flare suddenly amber, as the song stops and the woman loses her form, spiralling out into individual lights. A moment later, they go dark.
Lyman, having apparently noticed something new that's interesting, goes running towards Guppy, Teja and Kate.
