Your character has just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As they look around, their gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. They duck and step into a tattered tent, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the tent, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town? She begins, then pauses to study your face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.”
((How do you respond?))
Fennic looks around the tent, admiring and decorations and designs in it. As he walks farther into the tent he shifts his gaze toward the old hag, and smiles brightly. "Oh Hey there!" he says joyfully. "Dingy? haha. Im not sure what you mean, it smells of wet moss and old wood. I like it, reminds me of home back in the forest." He moves to sit down and continues talking. "You know? I like what your doing with the whole candle thing here. Its bringing a very interesting energy in here". He says looking around at the candles, then adjusting his legs to sit more comfortabley.
"I come from a small village deep in the forest, its pretty cozy! There are only 50 of us, so we all need to work together. I kind of miss it, but, I reeally wanted to explore other lands. See what other things live in the outer forests! So I have come out here on a bit of an adventure I guess. Im gonna see where I end up!" His body shifts, getting comfortable again. He moves his gaze about the tent, taking everything in again, thoughtfully. He settels looking at a cornor of the tent in the hags direction. "I do miss home though, I would like to find a new home just like it" he says, dreaming back "I used to explore around the village everyday looking for different animals and mushrooms." He looks back to the old hag. "My village is famous for the mushrooms that grow around it! There are a lot haha" he chuckles. "I used to wander around collecting the good ones, some fish and vegtables to bring back to my house. My parants disapeared when I was very younge, so I mostly grew up living with the Shaman." He chuckles again "You might have liked her, she decorated our home with lots of odd things she found in the forest. Said they brought an energy into the home that she liked." He stretches out his leg and arms, then, leaving 1 leg out, smiles at the old hag. "A number of months ago, I cant really remember how many haha, she told me it was time to go out on my own and exlpore the world. To gain knowladge of the world around us" once again he shfits his body, always seeming to never be fully comfortable in any position. "But how about you mam? How did you end up in a tent out here?".
