บท 63: Misthaven

I emerged from my slumber, the remnants of dreams fading as the morning sun painted the canvas of my tent in gentle hues. The chill of the morning air brushed against my skin, a subtle reminder of the world beyond the safety of my makeshift bed.

With purpose in my steps, I joined my companions who were already preparing breakfast. Lira's ruby eyes met mine, her gaze unwavering as she spoke, "Ready to go, Nord?"

I nodded, determination coursing through my veins. "Yeah, let's do this."

We discussed our plans over our meal, I told them how I had received a map from my Lenticular, and voices mingled with the sounds of the forest around us.

The anticipation of our upcoming journey added a layer of excitement to the air.

As we packed our equipment, the satisfaction of our progress within the forest bloomed within me.

Our group assembled, and our footsteps echoed through the stillness of the morning.
