The Elder gave a soft wizened laugh at the sudden outburst when she joyously recognized which horse it was.<strong>"Ah yes, I recall something about you always spending time with Moonlight, brushing his mane and sneaking treats to him. He really does look forward to your visits. So I figured who better to help you upon your journey. But as for why I have asked you to travel to Edenia and not return to Summershore Hamlet..."</strong>He gave a deep sigh as he knew this might be something of a contested point. But it was hard for the father to simply ignore.<strong>"I haven't heard from my boy in Edenia for some time and as such I am concerned. I ask that you visit the tavern and hopefully bring news of how he is and if he is well."</strong>He did however add one more thing.<br/><br/>And this small part was the true crux of the matter, the real reason why this information was going to Edenia first.<strong>"The Prince of Edenia had asked for this scouting information to be shared between us. As such we are obligated by our agreements to the human kingdoms to provide such. If the raiders came here now, orc, human or whatever they were, I imagine that many hamlets and elves would fall as a result. Hence why we need the humans strength as well in such crisis."</strong>He doubted the answer would satisfy, Nine Hells, it might even make her a bit outraged to know that Sunspear was not just helping the humans with their food shortage, giving their surplus away but also that they wanted to be kept in the loop about the information, lest the elven kingdoms be on their own with the raiders.<br/><br/>A few taps of the hooves upon fresh soil outside hinted that Moonlight was becoming restless outside. Apparently one of the elvish men was holding onto him, waiting for Moonshadow to finish up in there. Meanwhile the Elder would rise up to his feet and then asked Moonshadow one more thing.<strong>"Any other questions my dear? Or are your prepared to set off upon adventure?"</strong>He said with a faint smile as he was a bit reminiscent now of his youth. Rash, impulsive, and entirely too bold in his youth. Heading from the forests to perhaps pursue his own fame and fortunes with a small band of outsiders. People that didn't settle for less or simply didn't belong in typical roles in their kingdoms and homes. Most wouldn't settle for the quiet life a hamlet and a family but after all the things experienced in his adventures, it was nice to retire and enjoy just the simply day to day activities that come with what can be assumed a normal life.
