Dark Cacao Cookie || Lost in Beast-Yeast

Just moments prior, his soldiers were all around him. Within moments however, it all changed. "Your Majesty! Up ahead!" Caramel Arrow Cookie called, pointing ahead frantically and catching the king's attention. "There's a white fog; It's coming right at us like a huge wave!" It wasn't long until the fog had swallowed them whole. Dark Cacao had been smart enough to shield his mouth so he didn't inhale too much, and he certainly hoped his followers had done the same. "Where.. Where is everyone..!?" He hissed under his breath, eyes squinting painfully in the bright white surroundings. "I can't see a thing..!"
But he wasn't about to sit silently. Caramel Arrow's voice called out to him- "Your Majesty, over here!!" but it was far too distant for him to seek out properly; He jolted, snapping his gaze to the direction he heard the voice from. "Caramel Arrow Cookie..!" Dark Cacao's voice boomed through the thick fog within an instant, trying desperately to reach. "Caramel Arrow Cookie!! Are you nearby?!"
But no answer came. A deep panic started to take root; If he wasn't carrying his sword in one hand and shielding his mouth with the other, he'd be clutching his chest right now, the rapid thumping of his heart all he could hear in the dense fog. "CARAMEL ARROW COOKIE!! DARK CACAO WARRIORS! ANSWER ME!!"
His grip unconsciously tightened on his own jaw as realization set in, his eyes narrowing. "It can't be.. I've lost sight of everyone already...!" The white fog was blocking his sight. He needed to get it out. "eugh.. This dense fog- COVER MY EYES NO MORE!" A swing of his sword, and it blows away enough to show him a path, his eyes snapping open. A path..! Gripping his sword tightly with both hands now, he grits his teeth. "If I cannot see, I'll simply blow away the fog with my sword..!"
Another sweep of his blade. "Anyone!" Then another. "Is there no-one here?! If you can hear me, ANSWER!" Yet, as he made his way through the dense fog, there didn't seem to be anyone nearby. Dark Cacao clamps down on his nerves as he pushes forward. "Is there really no-one here..?" Just as he feels he might be doomed, Dark Cacao's eyes widen. The fog is less dense here, and it gives him a chance to let his tired arms rest as he narrows his eyes, using the momentary respite to see if there's anything, anyone nearby; But as he wanders out, he finds he's not on the same path he was supposed to be on. When did he get turned around...? No, not turned around; This feels like a whole other direction. Expression hardening as he coughs- knocking a bit of the residual, floury fog from the back of his throat, he reluctantly scans the surroundings. Just where is he..?
