You walk past Y'shtar, and follow a newly worn path. You hear a weird buzzing near you, and you can't figure out why. There's no bugs around except...
The annoying little faery whizzes up to you. She puts her hand on her hips and glares. "You just have to trod everywhere don't you?!?" She says and prepares to kick your nose.
You move your head and smile. "Yup! I go everywhere!" you say, just to annoy her. Viva huffs and plops down on your shoulder.
"I'm glad ZaeVer isn't around right now. You'd scare him to death!"
Then, as you look out in the bush, you two eyes...watching...you shiver, and the eyes move forward...
A cat-like creature comes out out of the bushes, in a smooth fluid motion. He flicks his green ears as you look over him. The green stripes camoflagded him in the bush, and his lower half is dark brown, as if he walked through mud. His eyes, one brown and one green, regard you slowly, and you can see him determining if you are a threat to him and his territory.
"I am not frightened easily, Mistress Viva," he says cooly. "And this Wanderer does not scare me. I am ZaeVer, and I am a Tufta. This is my glade." He almost spits as he speaks, the fur on the back of his neck standing up.
You shakily ask how long he's been in the realm. He throws his head up and laughs; yuo can't help but stare at those gleaming, long, sharp, white fangs. He brings his head back down and runs his tongue over his teeth. "I have been here for almost as long as this land existed. This is my land and the Mystic She mine to protect. You are merely an intruder who does not understand the magics of this land." He circles arond you, making the hair on yuor neck stand up and a cold sweat break out on your forehead. "And if you think that you will find out it's secrets, and find my quarry..." He snarls loudly and you jump back a bit. He grins toothily again and you figure that he must like scaring the spit out of people.
He gives a snort, then a growl and still looks at you. "You, Shaylin, have crushed the grasses enough." You stare dumbly at ZaeVer, not knowing what he said.
"OUT!" shouts Viva
She pinches you ear painfully and you think it's best to run for it when ZaeVer takes a swipe at your ankles.
