Neverwinter Forest settling light

Hope you don't mind me throwing Shiv into this! :D

The Neverwinter forest was only but a short jaunt from the Heartwood and, for two similarly large forests, they were both quite different. The proximity of the two woodlands was a blessing for Shiv who, as much as she adored her home, needed to stretch her wings every so often. For her exercise today she decided to head to the coast, riding the thermals in the air before descending into the thick boughs of the dark forest that sprawled out from the mountain beside it.

It didn't take long for the magpie to find herself some company, spotting a slim, white wolf weave her way through the trunks. Shiv tailed her for a distance though didn't reveal herself, before retracing her steps, bored and frustrated with the pressing silence of the forest. Where the Heartwood was alive with various chitters and chatters of other critters, this forest seemed empty and bleak. In an attempt to liven the place up, Shiv warbled her own loud, obnoxious song, landing on the soft earth and strutting around the base of a tree, unaware of her freckled friend lurking only a short distance away.
