Ellorei was getting tired; the maw hounds were stronger than she had anticipated. She was beginning to move to a contingency plan. Perhaps she could start a fire and scare them away as it seemed that reason was not working to her advantage. Just as she began to draw the fire from within her, a sagely man seemed to appear from the forests themselves. Ellorei was about to caution him until she felt his aura full of calm, and power. The newcomer walked in between her and the maw hounds as if he were intercepting a child from her pup. 

"Hungry are we? Well, we aren't an easy meal." He turned briefly to look at the druid behind him. She was one of the youngest druids he had ever seen. "Are we?" Ellorei was about to answer but found herself speechless as the pack of maw hounds retreated. As the last hound left their eyesight, the calm aura seemed to return with them. Ellorei was still in a bit of awe and only caught the tail end of what the fellow druid was saying only catching his name. She then immediately placed her staff in it's resting place on her back to take Rem's hand in both of hers, "Rem, hello. I'm called Ellorei. That was incredible, how did you just send them on their way? You're also the first druid I've met since completing my ritual. Gaia's been guiding me of course, but I have been flying by the seat of my breeches. where did you come from, do you live close by?" Ellorei's excitement was palpable she had only known one other druid, the chieftain of her tribe. Taking a breath, she still held his hand and was just barely able to keep from jumping in place...just.
