Both Gaia and Solar were strong here, and cooperative, whereas in other lands their worshipers seemed nigh at each others throats. He smiled and looked over at his companion, the large Timberwolf looked back at him with piercing ice blue eyes, the top of the large animals head reaching Nym's shoulders easily. "Well shall we then Nanaki?" he said as they continued down the road that was more of a hard to find path. Few traveled it as this was a particularly out of the way corner of Alagor. The two walked for most of the day, large wolf beside a man of about 5'8", a pair that seemed quite... natural. Nym was a lean man, with a smooth bald head and skin the color of chocolate. He wore forest green open robes with a long leather vest and leather breeches that were far more protective than they appeared. Around his neck was a necklace of wooden beads made from an apple tree and topped off with a bear fang in the middle. Upon the bridge of his nose rested a silver bead and further up in the middle of his forhead was a larger golden ones. At his hip was a curved blade while hanging from his pack was a  darkwood shield. A tatoo stretched from his wrist to his shoulder a flowing druidic script. Nanaki sniffed and stopped, the huge Timberwolf turned it's gaze upon Nym, Nym had stopped as well and met Nanaki's ice blue eyes with his own smokey gray orbs, they had come to a crossroads and both companions had felt the pull to the west, to the hills and the mountains beyond. Nym nodded to the wolf and instead of heading eastward, which would have lead them to the beuatiful forest in the distance, he headed west into the peaceful hilly region dotted with small clusters of trees. Gaia's children were calling to him, and who was he to deny such a call, a call for help.***The afternoon was approaching evening and Nym and Nanaki had been walking on the road for only a few hours. Once again the pair stopped, Nanaki sniffed the air, for a moment the wolf was tense as it smelled the passing of another, he sniffed again and relaxed visibily. As they crested the top of the hill they looked down the path and noticed a figure walking at a slow pace. The figure carried a wooden staff and and was adorned in brown hooded robes. Nym paused for only a moment before nodding to himself and continuing onward, at the pairs casual pace they'd catch up on the man and his leisurly step easily, the young druid simply didn't know if that would be a good or bad thing. They continued walking until they were nigh but 20 yards from the figure when they heard a mans voice call out. "Greetings." the figure and the apparent owner of the voice stopped. "I have been waiting for you to catch up, please, come walk beside me."Nym quickened his stride only slightly and caught up to the man who turned to face him. The man was only a couple inches shorter than him and had a lightly tanned skin and a wirey build. He pulled his hood back revealing sharp green eyes and simple brown hair. "So you've been expecting me?" he asked unphased at the mans knowledge of his comming. "Who are you?" the three continued walking again."I am Erias Stongoak." He said nodding in greeting "Servant of Gaia, preserver of balance, and guardian of this particular patch of land. Am I correct to assume that you are the one the land itself has been calling to?" he asked his green eyes noting the beads. "A Seeker from the forbidden forest? How fitting then."Nym nodded "Nym the Perceptor." he said returning the nod. "I have indeed been called here Erias, is there trouble in this land?"Erias sighed and shook his head. "Not that it would seem on the surface." the druid said before looking around then looking back at the younger Nym "However the mountains have gone silent and the wind is worried and fearful."Nym nodded gravely before Erias spoke again "You are welcome to return with me to the Village of Green, perhaps you could stay for a time until we figure out what is going on, it has been awhile before I've had the company of another Druid." To this Nym nodded again. "I should like that." he said, for it had been awhile since he too had seen a fellow Druid. "Tell me Erias, are you the ony-" both stopped, the three had crested another hill and down in the small valley of the hill a sleight form lay prone. A form with long pointed ears and large eyes, a form with wild hair and a bloodsoaked makeshift bandage!***</blockquote>
