Elisandra had awakened completely when Vesta’s gift brought the mouthwatering fragrance of dinner closer. She savored the delicious scent while watching them prepare to bed down for the night. Her heart gave an extra little  beat when she observed them cuddling together despite all the arguments and biting remarks they had traded throughout the day. The fire crackled, sending off sparkes and warm orange rays flickered, illuminating the couple.<br/><br/>With the night settling over the forest, the nocturnal wildlife started to venture forth. Insects chirping, far off howls of larger animals and the rummaging of smaller ones now filled the darkness. If you looked around carefully, you would get a glimpse of round glowing embers in the twilight. Proof of the wilderness peering back at you from a distance.<br/><br/>Hearing Aica’s question to Vesta, Elisa once again focused on the pair, the princess laying atop Aica completely protected from the cold ground and cradled tightly in his arms. She understood from the quietly spoken reply that Vesta had more knowledge than most humans in Aica’s kingdom. Her people must have more contact with the fae and their like, or at least had, at some point in history. The flattering answer humbled the little sprite, her cheeks reddening when she was named their savior. Elisandra hoped she would be able to live up to the captivating woman’s statement and aid the wronged husband and wife.<br/><br/>When they had been quiet for a few moments, Eli flew over to the laid out food and ate her fill, eating all the mushroom and onion bits while licking up the tasty broth. Sitting and rubbing her full tummy Eli wondered if they would sleep the rest of the night. She returned to the best view from her tree to keep an eye on them while she decided what to do next. They weren’t completely quieted down yet, and she spied on them while going over all the different ways to present herself come sunup.
