The man on the ground stirred, the girl watched, the other guarded. Mael watched as the man on the ground sat up. She could hear him, almost. "Angels...." She whispered, unfamiliar with the word. She could speak human language fine, but some things she had never learned. She tensed when he called out to her. 'He knows me, how?' She stirred from her hiding place, peaking out at the three. The other man, the man with the bow, pointed it at her and she winced. "Please, I mean no harm. I was going to follow you, I hope, to the castle." She said, gesturing towards the distance. "I need to go but I do not know the way."<br/><br/>She looked at the injured man, curious. Something about him seemed familiar, but she was having trouble placing it. Suddenly it hit her and she smiled brightly at him. "Ah! So you recognized me! You are a guardian, kin to the spirits? I recognize you too!" She walked towards them slowly, more confident now that she felt something familiar in their group. The man with the bow made her nervous though, and she stopped before getting too close to the group. She had never really interacted with humans before, she wasn't really sure how to talk to them, or what they would be like. They were all heavily armed, and that made her nervous too. The only ones she had seen armed in the forest had been invaders, interlopers, warmakers. They were not welcome. But these people didn't seem bad, she wondered why the carried swords, was the land dangerous?<br/><br/>She looked curious upon hearing the man's story about the danger of the night. She had not had any encounters with anything unpleasant since she had started travelling, but she had not been awake during the night. She always got very tired when the sun went down, and she always slept in the trees. She would awake at dawn and greet the sun, invigorated, and ready to continue her travels. "Ah...may I follow? I want to see the castle."
