It 

was a chil autumn afternoon, the forest danced with wind, the gust moved the leafs around the small paths that have been carved into the soft ground by rabbits and other small critters, like an intricated road, paths crossed each other and cover the forest as far as one could see.

The sun filtered through the trees, small rays littered the forest, and moved like waves as clouds tried to hide the light.

Lïn stepped into a large path that crosses the otherwise unmolested patch of nature, she had been walking since the early light of the morning waked her up, she had taken great care in the route she was following, she didn't want anyone to know she was coming from Quedlimburg, that place had accepted her like it's own kind, and she hated the idea of bringing trouble to those folks.

Of course, she could avoid that chance by staying still for once, but that wasn't who she was, "Some things are better left alone", she had heard that phrase so many times, it was pretty much engrained in her brain, she could hear it as she went to sleep, when she walked in silence, when she was alone with her thoughts.

Luckily, Lïn was accompanied by the song of autumn this afternoon, the noise of the leafs and the wind whistling through the trees calmed her, she couldn't have ask for a better companion.

Soon, the forest gave way to a large opening, the sky was in full view, clouds moved at a slow pace, hiding the sun, and taking away the warmth it left on Lïn's pale face, and leaving a sharp wind behind.

The cold didn't discourage Lïn, she was determined to see her mission through, she didn't know much about her past, all she knew is that a merchant from a small town has brought her to Quedlimburg when she was no more than a child, and that she came from somewhere north east of the frontier.

Se braced her hat and marched on towards the small village that sat in the middle of the field in front of her, leaving behind the company of the forest and the protection it had provided her.
