Neverwinter Forest iiii. she was standing there by a broken tree

@Grim *!!*

It was beautiful, she'd decided as ocean eyes lingered on the creature. 

It looked somewhat like the caribou of Sapmi - a relative of some kind perhaps - but the elf had yet to encounter a deer in her life. 

A fawn coat of the softest pelt, almost dove grey beneath the canopy of the dense forest, shrouded delicate limbs. Underside brushed with white that matched the faint spots scattered down its spine, it moved on nimble and silent hooves - blinking at her with gentle brown eyes that held the same fascination as her own. 

Elve took a slow step forward, feeling it a crime to disturb the calm of the heath, breath trembling from her lips as she approached. 

It was young yet - it did not know to fear her. 

Still it was obvious that her foreign presence in the wood made the fawn nervous; after a moment, it turned and slowly it faded into the greenery. 

The wind whoosed from her lungs, a blink and it was gone - leaving the broken bird quite alone.
