#yolo as they say

[babblings]

[ Worse, or better. It was hard to say for her, in this place. Perhaps too early to tell, or perhaps because she simply would refuse to assign it one thing over another. She of all people knew just how ambiguous accusations like that could be

It is a sorrowful and twisted and dangerous place, and maybe it was just as simple as that.
At his question though, she cants her head with a few feather-light steps forward.

How does she even answer that? ] Both - or well, neither at the moment, I think. I - am a bit lost, actually.

[ well, no. not entirely; reading land was far easier than reading cities, but it was a starkly foreign land, none her clan had ever explored. She wasn't as much out of her element as much as out of her world. She looks around them.] Well, I mean, I can probably find a way out of here, but I'd still be lost. It's a place that's hard to get used to, is all. [ Creators, was she rambling? ]

[gwynbleidd]

[Rambling? Yes. Geralt, however, doesn't seem to mind. He lets her talk, turning to face her when she emerges from the brush. Really, he understands, and he feels the same. He can navigate fine with the map (and probably some without it), but this was was so unfamiliar that he would just be "lost" no matter where he went.

The fact that this forest didn't seem to house the best intentions wasn't helping.] It's an easy place to get lost in. [With his pupils dilated, he can see a good bit of her features. An elf. The ears are different from his world's own, and the markings on her face don't match any of the tattoos the Aen Seidhe have on their necks.] And and easy place to be taken after being kidnapped.

[babblings]

Yes, I suppose it is. [ Mythal did the shadows just move over there?

Her clan would say this was all Fen'Harel, leading everyone astray. She would've believed that, and maybe a part of her still does, even despite the imps and the faeries. ]

[ His eyes are - interesting, she finds. A curious thing, and she cannot entirely say if there's magic to them, to him, or if just around them. Maybe it's both. ] I - I thought a forest would be better than being inside that castle. Too many turns in there.

But this forest doesn't seem like it wants anyone to leave. Do you find that it keeps changing? [ and lastly, with a tone falling softer. ] It's so dismal and dark here.

[gwynbleidd]

[The observation gives him bitter amusement. An evil forest can, yes, be worse than a castle, but he also knows a castle can hold darker secrets and even darker men than a mere nefarious cluttering of woods.

He returns the locket in his hand to a safe nitch in his satchel so it's not lost among the dark, twisting brambles, and then he looks around them critically.] It could be possessed by a spirit. I don't know of one that could do it to an entire forest, but it may be possible. [Or a sorcerer maybe.

Or it could just be sick. Nature consumed by grief, or tortured by people trying to dismantle it. He can't hear its voice himself, but he can feel the angry aura tingling his skin.] Standing around could be dangerous.
