Arrow Lake Phone Home

"I am not travelling alone," Elfie objected despite the obvious. "I am on a quest to look for willow bark," he explained and then it hit him - maybe - the lady knew, where to find any. He was not going to ask for help directly, of course. Only, if she caught the right vibe. 

"I have to go now," he told her abruptly, after hearing her answer (or not getting any). "Good luck, wherever you go!" he wished her and then set off in the direction he believed his home to be, but in reality he had chosen a path that led in the opposite way. 

Wrapping up all of the little guy's threads. Thanks! :)
