The brightening had dawned fair, that was true enough and as Selegon walked deeper into the trees, the sun penetrated through the canopy, giving the air a warmth that contrasted strongly with the chill he felt as he walked through the shadows. The deeper into the trees he walked, the fewer were the people that he saw and the fae also grew less, since he was leaving the area where some of them lived in a small colony carved into the trees themselves.
But he was not alone, he was too close to the city for that, and it wasn't long before he passed close to another elf. This one sat on a tree trunk and tied the laces that held his soft leather boot on. He glanced up at Selegon and nodded, taking in his gear.
You off hunting then? The elf asked, his voice low yet simple enough to hear.[/b] He finished tying the laces and looked up square at Selegon, awaiting his answer.
