The girl walked quite fast back up the path and to a large flat clearing of stone. Jagged cliffs continued to rise. Behind them, the pine forest spread out below, fading away in thick mist. The air was thick with condensation and a biting cold -- not good weather for Keid in the slightest.
There was a huge stone in the clearing that lent against the mountain. It looked as though it had once been some kind of monolith. She walked to the end of it and looked over both shoulders quickly. She then climbed its step-like structure and reached a higher cliff. In a valley, around a large corner, was a cluster of cosy wooden houses with curved rooves and no windows. There was nobody about. She ran into one of the houses and everything fell dead silent.

Kori followed silently behind, hoping not to lose her. He noticed how quickly she was traveling, so he had to be careful to travel slightly slower than her, but quietly enough as to not be heard.
His eyes fell on the village and instantly, his stomach ached in anxiety. It was as if a bucket of water was splashed in his face, cold and alarming. He felt his knees weaken, but he took in a deep, slow breath and continued, following the girl in the shadows of the houses.

From the darkness, an arm grabbed Kori's throat, yanked him into the shadow, and smashed him against the floor, probably almost winding him.
"Who are you?" hissed an angry voice. Two eyes glinted at him, right before his face. "Who are you?"

Kori felt petrified, thinking that he had hidden himself so well. How was he going to get out of this one? Any response would sound ridiculous. He gagged, and then kicked the dark figure back, reaching for the knife on his belt. His heart sank; his knife was taken earlier.
He swept the figure back some more with some wind magic, in a defensive pose.

"You wander into this village and then attack us?" the Fanoran growled. The girl came from the shadow and took the man's arm.
"He is the one that saved Geral," she said. "We at least owe him his own life." She turned to Kori. "But I did tell him to go back..."
"Why did you follow my daughter?" the man asked Kori. "Why? Hmm? Anyone else would have cut your throat without second thought."

Kori tried to think of a good reason why he followed. Deep down his heart was racing and his fear was reaching its climax. He felt as if he had been completely foolish, but he still and replied, "I wanted to make sure he was okay." How would they ever believe him? They must have thought he sounded ridiculous.
His eyes darted between the two Fanorans. His instinct was to attack or run, but he tried to keep calm. He seemed to feel as if the Fanorans were pleased when you run.

The Fanoran man tilted his head and leant back a little.
"That's not a very 'Keid' thing to do. When you shoot an animal, do you go and make sure it's okay? When you shoot a practice target, do you go and make sure it's okay? When you shoot a Fanoran, do you go and make sure it's okay? Of course you don't. Don't be so foolish, boy. I'd just get up and leave now before anyone else comes and finds you here. Do you realise how dangerous that would be for -- not only you -- but for us?"

He thought about it for a while, and then thought it wise to return home before he got into any other trouble. "I'll leave." He didn't want to hear anything else they had to say, with great speed, he traveled almost with the wind on how quickly he ran, being quiet as well.
He wondered if he'd make it back home as well.

The Fanorans from that home did not stop him, and there were none others until he reached the forest below.
