Hodfred's words were encouraging, but Rin couldn't help ridding the uneasy feeling. 

As Hodfred spoke of beyond the forest Rin's eyes lit up, he had no idea Hodfred had thought of what lied beyond. Usually this was a rare thought that occurred among the wood elves. Rin was relieved to know he wasn't the only one who thought life was more than just living in a forest praying to the Pure One. He embraced his culture, but embraced adventure more so.

"I agree, Hodfred, do you wish to leave the forest?"
