Verya looked at Settionne incredulously, before letting out a pleased chuckle at his flattering. "I do not often hear such words. Most of the time, men think me some fey demon. Thank you." she told him. Obviously she thought the attempt quaint, but it was amusing to one who spent most of their time fighting for their lives in these wild Southlands. 

She cleared her throat once she heard the exchange Alice and Ursaren gave. "Follow me." was all the reply she provided, and the Elves within the trees left only the faintest of whispers as they dispersed. A few of them, tall with well formed faces and brown of hair, flanked the group as they made their way into the wood. 

Beren let his hand brush one of the trees, for the bark was smooth and soft, yet sturdy to the touch. Calanon seemed very serene and at home here. Geradin grumbled at all of the Elven trickery, but kept walking with them. There was an ethereal light that permeated the forest, as if the very sunlight had been captured and tamed to hang about and keep the trees company with its warmth. Verya strode at the fore, her strung bow now at her back. 

"The problem I referred to earlier was something that we didn't quite foresee until a mere day ago, but there seems to be a Dragon rampaging across these lands. A great Green Dragon that has ransacked a few of the smaller settlements between here and the mountains. We do not yet know why, but its activities has driven many a monster out of their caverns and into the lowlands." she explained. "Oh, and there seems to be someone who may know of the why for this Dragon's rage, though it's a longshot. We've captured another human, one whom we do not entirely trust." 

As they moved, the mellow light only allowing just enough illumination to see a dozen paces ahead, gave way to true sunlight. Just past a huge Oak tree, as if it was the sentinel made to guard the doorway of this particular wood, was a woman Knight. Her hands were bound and her lush blonde hair was disheveled. Around her were other Wood Elves, bows strung and drawn, aiming at her. They had been aiming at her for quite some time.
