The Sentinels The Peaceful Silence of Forests

This stranger had not known of his presence for a time. But when they had, they turned and offered some sense of greeting. 

Hesitant and perhaps tense, he sensed.

I apologize for looming so near and unannounced.... I admit, it has been a time since I've seen another so freely. For most were consumed with others, guarded away in their territories. Something Theoxaris wished he could be doing this very moment.
