The forest was oddly silent, bathed in the deep orange hues of a setting sun. Shadows stretched long across the clearing, the air thick with tension. You stood at its center. You scanned the treetops with sharp, calculating eyes, ever watchful for any signs of danger. The rustling in the leaves broke the silence. You turned in the direction of the sound. Elizabeth, her white hair almost glowing in the fading light. You glare at her, clenching your fists while staring at her. Elizabeth paused a respectful distance away, her hands clasped in front of her, a calm untreatening figure.

"I mean you no harm, I only wish to speak to you."

Her voice was calm and gentle.
