I tense up slightly as trudge through the woods. Sure, take a freaking short cut. Huh? Not like cutting through the woods is risky. I shouldn't have done that. God that was stupid. It's fine, just... Stay calm and trudge through the dangerous woods and hopeful-

I freeze slightly as I notice a trail of blood. Oh... Shit. I pick up the pace slightly, following the blood trail. After second or two I finally found the person who was bleeding. An injured dark elf? What... What happened here?

I rush over to the dark elf, placing my hand over the injury and trying to stem the bleeding. Shit! That's not good. I have to slow the bleeding. Okay, okay, okay. Stay calm, breath.

"H-hey? Are you alive?"
