[color=#2eb82e]”Ah my dear Iva, it truly is you,”[/color] Nara said as she gave her friend a brief hug, [color=#2eb82e]”I am unsure where we are but I am sure that this forest feels… foreign. It is not one I had ever set foot in when in Yggdrasil. However I am certain that wherever we are now seems to be our reality now.”[/color] Nara noted faux smile Iva had performed with before her, chuckling a little at the implication of a creature like her smiling. She felt silence take hold of the forest once more as they stood together. [color=#2eb82e]”We may be in a different world however I doubt we are alone. After all, you are here and there is probably someone out there some-”[/color]

Nara’s words were cut off by the rumbling of the ground and grinding of stone, hopping back with Iva beside her and briefly readying herself to cast a spell. From the ground rose a large creature though calling it a creature might as well have been an insult to Nature as it seemed more akin to the ground that a beast. The crunching of the being’s stone body broke the silence in its wake as it looked between the two. For whatever reason it seemed to be hesitating however it did not seem intent on fighting them at the moment. Nara relaxed her body even as it briefly spoke, catching itself as it almost called them humans.

Even as the being questioned Nara as to what she was, she couldn’t help but chuckle and smile at it. It was as funny sight to see a talking boulder let alone one that took a while to note she wasn’t human. [color=#2eb82e]”Not human, no. Not quite a beast or troll like you either. I am a Dryad, a creature of the forests like you. My name is Nara,”[/color] She said with a slight bow before turning to Iva, [color=#2eb82e]”And this is my friend Iva. We seem to have gotten lost and didn’t intend to travel into your lands uninvited.”[/color] Nara took a moment to take in the sight of the troll before her and assess whether the creature was likely to be a hassle to fight. 

Of course, such a creature was likely no match for a Druid of her skill nor a caster as strong as Iva let alone the two of them together. However, this was sa prime chance for the pair to gain information from the troll and establish themselves in this new world. [color=#2eb82e]”By chance, would you be willing to tell us where we are exactly or, at the very least, point us in the nearest direction of a town?”[/color]
