Chapter 8 - Entering the Mist Forest

After the night of rest, i prepared and readied my equipment's and headed out of the tent i rented. Seeing the bright sunlight in the distance i squinted my eyes and covered the bright lights that invades my eyes and headed towards the nearby tent.

Seeing the fury bull near the tent. I decided to approached the furry creature in order to try patting it. But before i can even make a step towards the fury bull. The creature turn its head towards me and gnashed like it usually does.

Feeling defeated again. I waited near the Tent's entrance for Ava and decided to look daze in the process. Then with a sound of i heard the door of the tent open and i was greeted by the familiar robe and mask wearing friend that help me the first time we meet.

I approached Ava and greeted her. "Good Morning Ms Ava, did you get a good rest?''

Ava turn her head towards me and spoke. ''It was a good rest Mr Stian, How about you?''

'It was okay, it's bit better than my usual sleeping bed''

''I see, then shall we make our way now? The Caravan will be leave even without us you know.''

''Oh i see, then let's better hurry!'' as me and Ava plus her bull headed towards the place where the caravan will gather.

Seeing that were still not too late. Both of us sighed and stood behind the caravan along with people that have mounts like Ava. Among the caravan there were a lot of merchants traveling around with us pulling their carts using their mounts.

The crowd of people was diverse and it seems that the Festival that will happen of Wodfel City is really a festival that is look forward upon.

As i was looking around. I saw a black leather armored man which is followed by four person's wearing leather armor. Hearing the murmurs of the crowd. I have found out that these group of guards are the Escort Soldiers sent by the City Lord of Wodfel in order to guide traveling visitors.

Apparently due to the recent increase of Mist in the forest. The City lord has forbidden everyone who isn't verse on the way to Wodfel City and out to travel without escorts. These Escorts are probably the one in charge of guiding this caravan towards Wodfel.

The Escort Captain, the one wearing the Black Leather Armor started speaking as he mentions about the rules and guidelines that the people of the caravan needs to follow. After speaking the Escort Captain headed towards the front as the four guards covered the sides and back of the caravan.

The Black leathered Captain then beckon the whole caravan to follow him as the march started.

One of the rules given by the Escort Captain was to keep silence or speak in whispers mostly because if the crowd were talking loudly. They may attract the creatures of this forest and might be attacked. It also helps that as they keep silent the Escort Guards would be able to heard everything with the vicinity and react to any possible threats that may occur during the journey.

Walking towards the entrance of the Mist Forest , it seems that even with this much of a mist. The Entrance of the Mist Forest is still far ahead .

During the travel towards the Entrance. The whole walk was quiet and none dared to speak in a normal noise and focused on whispering. The Entrance of the forest was mostly covered with flora's and different kind of trees.

Despite my expectations, the towering trees were not grayish or even look dead. They were mostly green and mixed with a few orange which apparently signifies that the current season if fall. By the way i also asked what was the season from a random person and was answered in whisper.

There was nothing to say much about the surrounding other than the few strange bugs that i glance off. Seeing the amount of people and the wary looks of the guards. I decided not to bring out my camera and sadly followed behind the caravan.
