Xiulachu Falliron Xiulachu acknowledged Aorens affirmation of the start to their journey with a nod of his head, though his outside features showed nothing of the sort that he felt inside, a sense of joy that could only be equaled to that of a child being reunited with their parents. Quickly Xiulachu began to gather his bearings and began to walk towards their destination at a brisk pace. The first few hours of their long walk, that would likely take many days, was quite interesting; many different animals scurrying around in the trees to either side of the road that they were walking on. Xiulachu even noticed that Aoren was looking intently around them as though he were looking for any sign of danger, though no danger was likely to befall both travelers so close to Syliras. Though at least one of them keeping their senses up was a good thing it allowed Xiulachu to drop his guard enough to actually take in the beauty that was the Bronze Woods; Such a beautiful place. Xiulachu had never really allowed himself to just take in the scenery without some sort of fear that a wild animal or monster might be in the shadows, lurking about, waiting for Xiulachu to move into position for it to attack. When Xiulachu was brought back from his daydreaming by a voice he immediately recognized as Aorens he half understood what Aoren said which allowed him only half an answer. I've lived in the Bronze woods my entire life and on my own for over a year. Xiulachu said and regretted saying the instant he said it. Such an answer could only spawn even more questions that Xiulachu just wasn't comfortable sharing the answers with just yet. |
