<strong>Aeryn Sunlight<br/>Heading into the Wild with friends<br/>Dropping into the groove</strong><br/><br/>It wasn't quite as sudden and dramatic as lighting a candle in a dark room, but the change in Aeryn's demeaoner was obvious the further she moved from the gate, the closer she got to the edge of the farmland - which was very well managed, she noted<br/><br/>Her almost spearshaft - erect posture had relaxed,  her head was tipped slightly up, she was moving with knees very slightly bent, balance shifted  more on the balls of her feet, head moving slightly as her eyes quartered and scanned her field of view.  "Out of the city, thank the Goddess."  A half smile turned to a fleeting grin.  "I could live in any given library, don't get me wrong, but I do love the field."<br/><br/>A slight frown as she studied the almost painfully clear demarcation between Wild and farmland.  "No paths?  The colonist's don't go into the bush or any reason?  Odd.  Well, maybe understandably odd."  the frown vanished.  "Eshalu, please find us a game trail to follow towards our destination, it need not be a beeline, by any means.  Reliyian, right behind Elashu, if you please.  Lazarette, you  in the middle, then myself, then Erianthe."<br/><br/>A wink at Erianthe, "Carnivores hunt along game trails.  But you are too tough and mean looking for carnivores to bother with.  Most of them.  Keep careful watch behind you and to the sides, I will  watch the trees."<br/><br/><br/><br/>Edited for spelling, rrr.
