Needless to say, Kellen was somewhat unnerved by the ferocious nature of the great wolf that had pounced the three knights and easily dispatched them. Though when the beast pressed his nose gently against the fey to gain his scent, all that uneasiness seemed to melt away. Beaming, Kellen used his knuckles to gently rub behind Kolgrin's ears before the creature rose from him.
"[color=SkyBlue]I am in your debt, magnificent creature.[/color]" He spoke in a hushed whisper, watching the wolf retreat into the woods. Sitting on the path for a while, Kellen eventually decided he'd had enough excitement for one night. Standing up and dusting himself off, he quickly climbed up the nearest tree with a nimble gracefulness uncommon for creatures of his size. Perched up on the branch, he had intended to head back towards his lakeside willow when a sensation overwhelmed him.

Kellen stared back at where his four legged friend had departed. Overcome by a strange sensation of melancholy, Kellen couldn't bring himself to put this event behind him as easily as he'd intended. Turning his body fully, Kellen began to leap from branch to branch. Though instead of heading back to his willow, he had departed in the direction the great wolf had fled.

Tracking Kolgrin proved to be more of a challenge than Kellen initially thought. It seemed the beast possessed both brain and brawn; a thought that made the fey quite giddy. Humans had a nasty habit of viewing the many woodland critters as beings of lesser intelligence. Kellen had always possessed a natural inclination towards the animals of the forest, allowing him to understand them on levels that humans could not. Even so, it had taken him longer than usual to trace the steps of the wolf from earlier. Eventually he had found his way to what appeared to be a campsite. Approaching from a safe distance, Kellen perched high above in a nearby tree and began observing the scene. There were a few figures surrounding the flames. Kellen assumed them to be humans. After his recent run in, he was a bit afraid to approach another human. Though the site of Kolgrin among them was certainly reassuring. Leaping forth to a closer branch, Kellen silently dropped from the canopy so he could gaze upon the group at ground level. On closer inspection, it appeared there was also an elf and a young child with the group.

Perhaps he should introduce himself? No, the thought alone was enough to make him tense up. He'd have to approach them eventually; the wolf had his scent after all. Though surely a few minutes of watching from the shadows would be alright.
