Neverwinter Forest 'cause i never stayed long

the birds ahead must've been on the edge of their seats, perched as they watch two men of stone speak. it felt as though a storm could pass through and neither would move. then, the raven-colored stone tipped his crown. a younger masa would've smiled at the thought, perhaps. he isn't sure anymore.

i won't be here long either. a married man, and clearly urgent. no pups however, otherwise this encounter would've taken a far different turn. it'd be rude if masa held him any longer — something he only learned by force. very well. a sharp inhale through the nose before he prepares to move again. my apologies for keeping you. may you and your wife have easy travels.

with that, masa continues. he never gave the other a name but neither would've needed it anyways — their paths only crossed here for now, the hunter had no clue if they would meet again.
