As their eyes fully adjusted to the incoming sunlight, the Young Ones emerged from the cave and enjoyed the warmth and beauty of the land all around them. The Forest of Macul was spectacular--broad oaks for as far as the eye could see, birds singing gaily away, a soft gentle wind blowing, and a near cloudless sky up above!All seemed right with the world, until two arrows landed in front of Eric's feet, only an inch apart from each other.
"Stand where you are, drop your weapons, and hold your hands up where we can see them!" announced a Wood Elf emerging from a tree line. To the right of him was another one, that had an arrow nocked in an ash bow and ready to drill into some's heart!
"What is this, Dragnet or what?" asked the Cavalier sarcastically.
"Eric, shut up!" hissed Diana coldly.
"Now, humans, fairy, and--thing!" mentioned the Wood Elf, acknowledging everyone in the group. "Who are you? And why are you trespassing in our forest?"
