Anwen smiled though almost sadly. If this works, an escort home would probably be nice but she wasn't really sure it could. There were rumors of a shimmering arch deep in this forest that could cure any ailment. By touching it...she might be free of her curse.

But she doubted it and it was too much of a risk to have him there along with her. If he reached out to catch her or help her up...she didn't want to think about that.

"I'll be okay. You don't have to worry about me. I'm more of a danger to anyone attacking me than the other way around." With that, she turned to continue her way to the tree line.

Killian's face fell.
"Oh, I'm sorry then." he bowed his head. "But if you should change your mind," he afforded her a charming, soft grin. "You can find me at the Connlaothian barracks," he rolle dhis eyes, thinking about that make shift mess. "Or rather, the scrap hall behind the tavern." Nodding, he bid her farewell and turned around to leave, but not without glancing back at her disappearing form into the forest.

Walking back through the village, he headed back towards his men. He supposed, well, he should probably report. Taking in a deep breath, he pressed forward and clanked his way noisily to his room, where he unpacked, ate with his men and found himself becoming a sweaty mess as he practiced his routines. By the time all was said and done, he found himself collapsing onto his bed side by candle lit, brushing the sweat from his forehead and using a make shift wash basin to clean off.

For a long moment, he stared at his reflection int he mirror after he washed his face. Staring at his blue eyes and thinking...
thinking back to that woman back in the market.
"Damn it, Killian. You're so clumsy," he chided to his reflection, then sighed and turned back around, slipping on a heavy wool lined, fur jacket before going outside and shivering as he took a stroll to clear his mind.

"He didn't come back." A woman was speaking to another just outside of the window she was working at. "I sent him in to the woods to gather pine nuts days ago but he never came back."

"You should have known not to send him to the north passage. People have been disappearing there for weeks. I've not heard of anyone coming back. They keep finding the bones of travelers not too far in."

"Good delivery boys are so difficult to find." The first sighed.

Killian had been walking by just as he had heard their conversation. He wasn't one to pry, but when he realized of the location they spoke of, he didn't hesitate to approach. "What do you mean about the north passage? What has happened? And was this recent?" Killian stared at them desperately, taking one of the women's hands into his own. "Please, I must know. A friend of mine.. she.. " he shook his head.

"She had gone into the woods earlier today." he frowned worriedly at the thought.

One of the women put her other hand to her chest.

"Oh you poor boy. Your friend is lost if she goes that far in there. This happens all of the time I'm afraid. They say there's a monster in there. If she doesn't get back soon, it might be too late."

Meanwhile, Anwen made her way through the the trees careful not to touch anything. She did slip once, catching herself on her tree only to rest her cheek against it. The life seemed to drain from it making it crumble slightly. She sighed and kept going.

Panicked, Killian begged the woman.
"I need directions. I have to go find her!"

The two women exchanged glances, and soon Killian was on his way. He had little time to worry about supplies, but did manage to bring his sword and a few minor items, but no longer dawned his armor for before, though it was replaced with his thick, winter clothing. Securing the hood over his head, he set out into the biting, arctic wind, carrying a small lantern on his side to light the way.

But the winds were terrible, and the roads, an unforgiving mass of crisp snow, that made travel difficult and noisy- especially as he was trying to listen for Anwen as he shouted her name the deeper he got into the forests.

"Anwen!?" came his voice, echoing across the falling, fluttering snow.
"Anwen!?" he called again.

Normally Fen tried to stay out of these things, but he too had heard the rumors, and he was not someone who would let someone die simply because he didn't want to spend the energy to find and save them. Leaving his cart and supplies with a friend in the town he shifted to his wolf form and head out, finding the young knight first and keeping a close eye on him from the bushes and shrubs. When the young knight seemed to be straying from young Anwen's trail he stepped out into the lantern light, lending his body an unearhtly glow from glowwyrm, a legless lizard that lived in dwarf caves under ground, he turned and pointed with his nose the direction the girl had traveled.

In the snow, and with the glow, he hoped to be passed off as a Forest spirit or maybe a god. He did not want the lad to know that the smith from the first night was the same as the wolf who now showed him the way.

Startled by the sight of a wolf, Killian halted in his tracks, fear gripping his heart.

"Is that animal.." Killian blinked, in awe of how the wolf glowed..
and then.. it moved.
A hand went towards his sword defensively, but then he eased up, realizing there was something else at play as his eyes followed the direction of the wolf's nose.
Turning back towards the creature, he admired it- it shined like the moon, an ethereal creature.

"Perhaps Angsar shows some mercy," he whispered, and moved in the direction the wolf had pointed, grunting as his boots sunk heavily into the deepening snow. Though most of the tracks on the trail had been worn over, or covered by snow drifts, there was still enough discourse for him to detect where the path at least was.

His breaths remained raspy, heaving out in white clouds from his mouth and nose as he made his way onward and forward, pausing at the crest of the hill through the ever green trees to see if he couldn't catch a glimpse of that wolf once again....

Torel trudged after them, He didn't want  anyone to die, such a horid death, and he was interested with the lot of people who had gathered, So he followed the young knight from a distance. He didn't want to give himself away but he figured the wolf he had seen knew he was here.  He trudged, his gear on and his bag full. He had resupplied with the money he had made from his furs, and figured he would make sure that these people didn't end up dead.

It was only then Killian noticed Torel approach as he gave a start, again, reaching for his blade, but when the figure stepped beneath moon light, he had to blink, remembering the face.
"Hey, you were there at the market today," the knight in training replied, blinking.  "What brings you all the way out here in the woods at night?"

" I followed you, hearing you were off on some errend to rescue someone. I couldn't let you go alone, I would feel responsible if something were to happen to you. I also hunt and trap, so its not that odd, being out at night. " He smiled and approached the night. His furs keeping him warm, he sighed at the bitter cold.  " I hope you don't mind me following you, I didn't want to startle you. "

Killian nodded, smiling a bit and glad for the company.
"Well, you remember that girl from earlier," he began. "Er, the poor one I sort of knocked all of the fish over?" he rubbed nervously at the back of his neck, his blush burning, despite the bitter cold.
"She went wondering off into the woods today. I don't think she had come back. Then I got word about their being trouble..." He lowered his head.
"I feel awful, and responsible if something were to happen to her." Killian shook his head and frowned. "I shouldn't have left her go alone." Raising his head, he gestured towards Torel. "Come, perhaps you can help me track her down." he shivered. "It's quite cold tonight." he added. 

"By the way, my name's Killian. Killian Gryst," he said, smiling warmly at his introduction.

Torel was concerned, it was not safe for people to wonder on their own like that. " Aye, I remember her, She was new to the region.  We will find her and get her to safety.  It seems that word about her wondering has spread all over town. " He walked on to get closer, hoping that the man would join him.  Torel could tell that someone had been this way but there was no guarantee, that it was the one they were looking for.   " It is, as are most nights, but we best keep going.  if we want her alive when we find her that is." He hated when newcomers got them selves in such situations. Anyone should know not to go out by themselves like that. But newcomers never seemed to get that.

Dreamwolf

Fen followed from the edges of the wood line, keeping just out of sight. When the two men stopped to converse he stepped out again, glowing once more. he turned and pointed in the direction the girl had gone. His concern was over the fact that there was a dead tree nearby that held the girls scent. He began to suspect what the girl had left to find, and if he was right she was headed for true danger. Hyoite was a place where Forest spirits made their home. And some could be very touchy about humans entering their territory. The girl was seeking a fountain, although in some legends it appeared as a pool or a spring, and it could cure any disease. Fen himself had sought it out once. He had failed to find it. The spring was supposed to be guarded by a Spirit of untold age. One that despised humans, according to the forest spirits Fen had asked about it.

A small clothed figure was running away from a group of crows as the small figure yelled at the birds with a scratchy small voice, "NO!!! THIS NUDS FOOD!!! STUPID BLACK BIRDIES!!!!" he yells carrying a loaf of bread with him. he was running and crashed into a tree dropping the bread. The crows start pecking at it voraciously. The small figure growls as the fly away leaving nothing behind. He ran over and yelled at them. he sighs as he turns around and see's that there was a group of larger figures were only 2 feet from him. he gets on his knees in a desperate voice, "DON'T EAT NUD!!! NUD NOT TASTY!!! NOT TASTY!!!!" he cries out desperately
