[color=pink]"Say what you will.  The Jerim will return this way soon I believe, so it'll be wonderful cover."[/color]  The elf woman said, leading the group through the forest.  Soon enough, the sounds from overhead died down.  It seemed, if they were ships, that they landed on the other side of that small camp.  After being far enough away to consider they were safe, the woman spoke.  [color=pink]"Now that we have the leisure to talk...  What even brought you down here?  Obviously, you're from off planet.  Well, you came at a horrible time either way.  Just be glad it was me or one of my kin you ran into instead of the others."[/color]  While talking, the group came upon a tangle of roots coming out of the ground.  The elf simply touched them and they opened a path for the group.  

Jess watched in awe, but kept quite.  She got them into trouble by talking before.  [color=pink]"Quickly, this way.  These roots will return to their original form soon enough."[/color]  The elf urged everyone to walk through.  There was no obvious trick here.  Jess went without hesitation.  If this woman was going to hurt them, she'd do it by now.  There were plenty of chances.
