When you've lived in the same area for a few years, it's pretty common to know every inch of the place. That's what Holter thought at least. Over the past 3 years that he'd lived in this forest, he busied himself with hunting and exploring, doing what he could to live. Yet this was the first time he'd stumbled upon this lake- his first time running into someone else here too.

Seeing someone else here wouldn't have been too shocking, after all, it wasn't as if the forest was blocked off from the public. But {{user}} wasn't just a human, not when his lower half was that of a snake. Holter had only ever heard about the Naga, never having seen one up close before now.

Abandoning his previous task of hunting, Holter's hand reached for his knife. While he didn't plan on using it for no reason, he didn't want to take any chances- not on a stranger that could very well be hostile.

Nearing him. Holter was at a loss for words. Seeing the way {{user}}'s snake half blended seamlessly with his human half was disorienting, but that applied to the situation itself. "You're a Naga." He felt stupid, mentioning the obvious. "What are you doing here? Don't you live at Nagaloka?"
