He didnât know what is was about the woods that he found so comforting. Maybe it was the fact that he was surrounded by wildlife or maybe even it was the fact that he was away from humanity. Either way he found himself drawn to it more than he was civilisation. The issue with that however, was though he had been in this new area for some time, he had only really met one person and he didnât even have a job yet.
Walking through the woods, he picked up a long stick and instinctively started twirling it around like one would a sword. Old habits from his previous life. âI wonder how my family are doing... probably not missing me at allâ he shrugged as he continued within the woods
Joy didnât really know why she was in the woods, but here she was, walking aimlessly through the woods, just enjoying seeing all the little animals as they ran around. She heard a voice which caused her to go searching for the source, seeing the man twirling a stick around and she coughed loudly to announce her presence. âSorry, just didnât want to startle you and have you stab me with that stick. Does not sound very pleasant I must say.â The brunette gave the stranger a small smile. âI heard you while I was walking around out here so I wanted to come over and say that what you said probably isnât true. Iâm sure your family misses you a lot.â
Alaric jolted slightly when he heard the random voice, breaking him out of the little world he had put himself in. Looking up at her he couldnât help but chuckle slightly. âI wouldnât have stabbed you. Iâm more of a pacifist then I fight it, believe it or notâ Looking up at her, he twirled then stick before putting it so it was sticking out of the ground. âI appreciate what youâre trying to do when you say that, but you donât know that. You donât know them. I mean. First of all, they hate that Iâm a pacifistâ
