The sun was beginning to set over the horizon as the boat docked and began to unload all the passengers, Eteri included. The young woman floated off the dock, her footsteps as light as a bunny, as she walked around in excitement. The city was enormous and the lights of various colors filled her eyesight. There were blues, reds, greens, purples, and whites of all shades on the buildings, clothing, and people. The sorcerer was drinking in the sites of the city as she turned around in a complete 360 degrees. The lights danced through the city and along the pathways like fairies in the night.
Even with the intention of exploring the city, there was a path that lead outside of the city. The wood elf couldn't help her curiosity as she started to walk down the dimly lit path. Naively unaware of her surroundings, she stepped outside the gate and heard a faint melody. She froze for a second and listened. Straining to hear the melody, it was soft and reminded her of the sounds from home, the enchanted forest.
Glancing back into the city, her chest tightened as the desire to run straight to the forest strengthened by the seconds. This happened at every new forest. Eteri could feel her natural attraction to any forest. The wind intertwining between each branch, the call of each animal, and the whisper of nature's touch. It called her.
The sorcerer found her feet moving without realizing. She had already made up her mind. The lights of the city faded in the distance behind her as the elf stepped into the darkening day that guided her towards the forest. She wasn't sure what she would discover in the forest, but something was telling her to come.
By the time Eteri reached the entrance of the forest, the sky had begun to fall into darkness. Gathering a few dry sticks and logs fallen from dead trees, she created a small fire to light the night.
