It had been almost a month since Darrow left the north and dare he say, he was loving it. The plants here are huge, tough, and flaky. Some friendly villagers he had met told him they were "Trees", how neat. There was even many different types of animals that he had never seen before, like these small animals that ran among the trees and had big, poofy tails and Math'Ura really liked these scaly creatures that lived inside the water. However, there was one down side. It was so hot, he even had to ditch his winter furs. The villagers were kind enough to give him a "shirt" and "pants" and he took them eagerly, but kept them underneath his armor which rattled as he walked along. 

His and Math'Ura's peace was shattered however when they heard cries of pain from across the river. A girl was firing arrows at several men...no kings men. She must be like me.

[i]"Mother Bear,we must help her![/i] Darrow said frantically. 

That was all she needed two hear as she unleashed an earth shattering roar while Darrow tossed several javelins, missing his marks but making his presence known to the kings men.
