Drew had gotten his orders a few days back, now he was headed toward another town and place. The king of his kind wasn't very fond of bonding together with the other realms for help, Drew didn't mind much of it, his feet silent on the forest floor he was traveling at night he could see better. What he failed to notice was a snare next thing he knew he was hanging upside down from a branch, "drizzt" the damming word in drow language that he always loved to use when caught off guard.

A red head woman watched the intruder as he made his way through the forest. The Drow had tripped a system of signals that alerted the half elf to his presence in the woods. Now that he was in her snare, the woman dropped from her hiding place in the trees, landing quietly in the leaf litter while her arrow was trained on the caught Drow's chest.
"What are you doing here?" She demanded, drawing back the string on her longbow.
"An interloper in the night... Probably on an errand for his demon lord... Scum of the realms!" She said, circling her caught prey,
"You will tell me what you are doing in my woods, and maybe I'll grant you a quick death."

Lavender eyes watched the half-elf, most of his brothers had red eyes like most drow well Drew didn't. He let out a sigh "sent to together forces to try and take on chaos I told my king or whatever you call him that I didn't want the job, but he sent me anyway so am I going to die here or not I really don't care either way." He said in a firm voice, he wasn't cold like his brothers were he was....different that's what his brothers said to him. His eyes flicked up to the rope, his hands grabbed and pulled himself up onto the branch and sitting there. "Still I would say nice snare didn't see it," Drew was switching to different languages of the other realms quite easily.

Sienna watched him as he climbed up to the tree. This Drow seemed strange to her, not as blood thirsty. Still, she kept her arrow trained on him,
"Of course you wouldn't see it." She snipped, her voice sharp,
"I made it. No one, and no thing sees my traps." Taking a couple steps back, Sienna bent her knees and leaped to a low hanging branch. Her elfen blood made her more agile than a human, but she still had her limitations.

(It's alright)
Drew looked at her, curious then shrugged. He brought his foot up, resting it on his other knee and untied the knot that was around his ankle. "Just telling you now if you think I work under that bastard of a king willingly I don't, he has to do a lot of things to get me to follow one of his stupid orders." He jumped off the tree, landing lightly on his feet his sword resting in its leather sheet on the middle of his back.

"Why should that matter?" She asked, looking down at him from her place on the branch. The tip of her arrow lowered a fraction, her arm relaxing and finally Sienna lowered her bow altogether.
"Whoever comes into this wood either wants to cause trouble or wants to find trouble. Which are you?"

Drew laughed, then looked up at the sky. "Might be both I really don't know yet, been told all my life to just stay out of these woods all together I guess I wanted to miss off the king or my brothers letting them know they can't control me." He let out a sigh, then started walking again he really didn't mind if he got lost in these woods so what not like they would be looking for him if he went missing.

Making a face, Sienna followed the Drow, jumping from branch to branch.
"You're strange. What's your name?" She said, disappearing then reappearing amongst the foliage,
"Oh, watch your step... I put a leg snapper there." Sienna pointed to a spot ahead of the Drow. It had been such a long time since Sienna had had contact from the outside of her woods. She was the reason the woods were avoided by travelers, with her hidden traps and her wild calls.

Drew only smiled at the comment, "names Drew O'nera." He jumped over the trap, he knew he was at the edge of the forest. He peeked out for a moment hearing the voices, "where did that demon of a drow go we need to find that thing before it gets any farther away from here." He looked at the humans then shook his head, "or I was getting away from those people," he pointed at the humans then kept moving

"There hasn't been anyone else coming through here, Drew the Drow" Sienna said with a smile, jumping down from the branch and looking to the people coming towards them,
"Ignorant fools," She said spitefully, re-arming her bow.
"This Drow you're looking for, where is he going?"

Dreier looked at her, "just call me drew." Slowly the humans went the other way headed back toward town, "they won't be looking for me for a long while since the legend of my people has finally set in." He starts walking again, towards the khenji kingdom. He had a few friends there but not many, he kept his pace he would make camp when the sun would start rising.

((Btw, I totally love the title. Our names are both misspelled, it makes me giggle.))
"Can I come?" Sienna asked, hanging at the edge of her trees. In her mind she had decided to follow Drew anyway, but she felt like she needed permission anyway. If he flat out rejected her, Sienna would return to her trees and stay in the forest once more but if he left any way open, Sienna would follow. For some reason Sienna was intrigued by the Drow and wanted to know more about him and why he had decided to leave his home and go on the run.

Drew looked over his shoulder at the woman, "if you want to come you can I don't really care either way." He kept walking, he wasn't really in a hurry to get there either way. Still he wouldn't mind the company anyway, he looked at the sky, the sun was starting to rise he brought his hood up over his eyes.

Laying her bow across her shoulders and walking swiftly, Sienna caught up to Drew. With the sun rising Sienna couldn't help but yawn. She had been up all night on the lookout for trespassers or danger. Since going to the forest Sienna had no longer slept at night, too afraid of what lurked in the darkness.
"So what made you switch to being a 'good' Drow?" Sienna asked.

Drew laughed at the question, "there are no good or bad drowning there are just drowning I may act different than my own kind, but that doesn't change what I am a drowning it won't matter either way people will think of me as the others so it won't matter what other people think of me." He said in a soft tone as he kept moving toward khenji lands.

"Well I'm slowly changing my mind about you," Sienna said quietly,
"I mean you're not trying to kill me right now, which is good." She said with a smile as they walked. She didn't know exactly where they were going, but Sienna looked at life as an unplanned adventure, and she was willing to go wherever the adventure took her.

Drew shook his head, "still if you think I'm good that's your opinion not everyone else's not really anyway." He said as they got to the forests edge, he let out a whistle and his horse came over to him. He smiled, "told him to go on the dirt track that went around the forest and he did which is good."

Sienna shrugged, dropping the subject of Drew's loyalties to good or evil. She honestly didn't care at this point. To her no one was completely good or completely evil. The humans around the woods weren't good, nor were they evil, but Sienna didn't like them anyway. When the shrill whistle split the air, Sienna winced, her sensitive ears ringing, but she was impressed when the horse came forward.
"Your horse understands you?" Sienna asked, her head tipping to the side with curiosity.
"But why did you send him around?"
