Eldarin caught his breath for a minute and considered what best to do. He could bring out a flame to help light the way, but odds were it would reveal his position and possibly start a fire, neither of which were any good. Sighing, he resigned himself to pushing through the thick woods as best he could, listening for the river to make sure he didn't stray too far off course. Naturally his blade was out and he constantly scanned the darkness for anything that indicated a threat. He wasn't sure what was more dangerous in this place, the animals or the plants.
