[It's said in such a small voice that it's barely audible over the ambient sounds of the wind below them, and Tifa does pause to wipe the dirt and blood on her hands away with the handkerchief before she balls it into a fist. When they find her mom, she'll have to make sure she gets this cleaned before she gives it back to Hilda...
But how is she supposed to if...
No, she's not going to think about that right now. Hilda is being nice and helping her, and she doesn't want to waste anymore time getting hurt or crying. So she roughly wipes away her tears with the back of her hand, sniffles loudly, and takes Hilda by the hand.]
Let's keep moving. She can't be that far now. Just on the other side of the bridge.
[Except... Poor Tifa doesn't know what's on the other side, and it will be a blank slate of fog until it can pull from Hilda's memories to fill it with more forest—trees as far as the eye can see, but there's a strange sort of darkness that lingers beneath their canopies that leaves a sinking feeling in Tifa's stomach... Even still, she'll continue on, until she stops just short of the line of trees.
