Lovely, Jayna! Quite a lot in here. Messages, morals, and double perspectives. I first thought the character was a doe. But could easily see this as a woman escaping from someone.

Thank you for reading and commenting, @anikekirsten! Yes, she is definitely a person. She wandered away from the cabin where she is staying, and cannot find her way back. The question is whether the light in the woods is from someone she knows and trusts, or some creep. How would she defend herself? It may be the very person who could save her, but alas, she is too afraid to find out.
Oh, yes. I'd probably have hid as well. Very few strangers are benevolent so it would be safer to find her way back alone. Dire scenario for sure.
I wonder what would be more frightening — the forest animals or some unknown person.
Eek. Good question.
