[You know, it's really a testament to how utterly terrible her life is that she's walking through a forest and even the literal trees are beating her up, and yet the reaction the strange blond girl in Victorian dress appears to be having to all this is essentially best summed up by John Mulaney.
She's quite pretty, even though her shoulder-length hair is conspicuously tattered at the ends, looking more like it's been hacked off than properly trimmed; then, of course, there's the fact that her full-length gown with corset and heels render her completely out of place in the uneven terrain of a forest. Plus there's the fact that she just looks more like she belongs posed on a shelf somewhere than wandering around — doll-like, with big blue eyes and fair skin and something a little eerie about the way that she carries herself, a little too poised and a little too scared.
You might just see her being knocked down by the branches, if you happen to be in the woods; she's about as light as a bunch of grapes, and consequently it doesn't take much for the trees to bat her over. Still, she keeps getting back up and wandering, looking increasingly more miserable as she goes, until finally she reaches the candy house in the clearing.
And you know, this isn't her house and a witch will probably leap out if she decides to sample it, but, well. You know those days where you're like, this might as well happen?
Yeah. This is one of them.]

[Oh, boy, oh, boy, time to go into the woods and get stoned!
Or, well. Time to set off on that particular adventure, at least. Meridiana's sort of hovering around by the edge of the forest at this point, looking utterly out of place and generally nervous, which probably isn't a surprise when you consider how tired she is of getting whacked around by all those tree branches.
Still, a quest is a quest, and she's doing her best to bear up bravely, so if you happen to be her vicinity, she might just flag you down —]
Er...pardon me, but — are we all meant to venture out and see about this...feeding business? It's only that I'm not sure if I'm, er, well suited to it, and...
[She looks like she'd fall over and faint after ten minutes of hiking, frankly, "not well-suited" is a bit of an understatement.]

[How exactly did Meridiana manage to assist in completing this quest? Who even knows, but it seems she's found her picture book, and has taken it outside by the well to have a look and read it, intrigued by the warm yellow cover and the sight of her name emblazoned across it —
Of course, the instant after she opens it up and has a look, she slams the cover shut again, abruptly going deathly white and more than a little terrified, and starts clutching the book to her chest with both arms folded over it, like she's trying to hold it so tight that there's no chance of it ever opening again.]
