Ravensblood Forest Pretense against Pretext

one post. It looks as if Murkwood may have fallen. So perhaps just have the survivors post once and then we can close this out? Thank you everyone for playing along.

Etienne stuck close to Anselm. Taking comfort in the presence of the mountain man. It was painful and hard to see his family upon closer inspection as they drew nearer. And something ugly pressed into the Sea borns chest. A gross anger and hatred of the likes he had never known. He wanted to maim something. And that alone scared him more than anything else could. For he was a healer. And to hurt another. But he felt like he could do so and not think twice about it. And for that he felt a little shame.

But he led to where he could. Showed places where loud paws would make the most noise and the quickest way in and out that he had been able to gather with Anselm's help. He just hoped they were enough. And in time.
