"Well, for one thing he has an early warning system around his camp," she replied, just as they passed an oddly shaped lantern that hung from a tree. "The wolves never come near him, so I'm not sure WHAT he thinks he needs guarding from."<br/><br/>They finally reached a clearing much larger than the one Ariadne called home. At its centre was a large, one-storey building which somehow seemed both decrepit and well-kept. Although the clearing appeared otherwise empty the sound of horses whinnying could be heard somewhere nearby. Ariadne led Daric up to the door, rapping on the door, but no answer was forthcoming.<br/><br/>"Come on Elreth," Ariadne called out. "Last I knew there was nothing wrong with your hearing, so I'm certain you can tell you have visitors." There was a grunt from within, and the sound of heavy boots could be heard approaching the door. It opened to reveal a tall man, dressed in a plain brown tunic and thinning grey hair. But his most remarkable feature were his eyes, which were milky white. He let out a deep chuckle as he reached out and touched Ariadne's shoulder.<br/><br/>"It's always a good day when I am visited by my favourite Pri-" he stopped himself, a pained expression crossing his face even before Ariadne could say something. He turned towards Daric. "My name is Elreth," he said, bowing slightly. "I know, you wouldn't expect a blind man to last long in this place."
