"He's got the scent all right, but can he follow it? It's something I can't promise in these conditions, but we will give it our best shot." She looks at Stormy and gives him the hand signal to follow the little girl's scent. He heads off after the scent, never going so fast that they can't keep up. "Looks like were going into the woods. Let Gale pick the path, and remember to duck," she says with a quiet chuckle as they head off after the girl.

“Wait… have you been in the woods before?” Emayra asked. “I’ve heard no one comes out of there.” She fought a sob. “Oh gods, Kalli did go there… oh gods this is bad.”

Tseth stops when he hears their conversation. A kid’s missing? And supposedly in the woods. He decides to walk up to them. “Excuse me, but I couldn’t help overhearing your conversation. You’ve lost someone?”

Emayra jumped so bad she almost fell off the horse. She felt the tips of her ears turn red. “Yes,” she said, fighting her embarrassment. “A young elf girl, dark hair. I’m sorry, who are you?”

Litherelm looks at the man wearily. She raises one eyebrow. "Why are you asking, sir, if I might inquire?" She carefully looks to see how much daylight is left. "We should be on our way soon if we want to catch up to her before it gets dark," she says with a slightly clipped tone, itching to be off.

Tseth tilts his head for a moment at Emayra’s reaction, before re-composing himself. He tries to make himself look as least-threatening as possible, which was slightly difficult. “Ah, my name is Tsethlekai. You can call me Tseth, though.” He turns to Litherelm. ”I can help you two find the girl. Part of my profession is to be good at finding people.”

Litherelm looks at the man, studying him intensively, and notices him trying to make himself look as nonthreatening as possible. "If you can keep up, come along if you like," she states calmly as she looks him dead in the eye. "Now where is she, boy?" she says as she turns back to the wolf.

Tseth nods his head once in acknowledgement. He glances back at the wolf. Well-trained. Could use a companion like that. He falls into place with the rest, occasionally glancing at his surroundings. A subconscious habit.

Emayra tried to relax as they went. This newcomer made her uneasy… she shook her head. Stop that, she told herself in her head. He may be able to help.
They followed Elm’s wolf closer and closer to the edge of the forest. Emayra’s stomach clenched in fear, but she shoved it down. She had to find Kalli.
