Ravensblood Forest Thinking out loud.

Charon almost felt a little guilty when the female greeted him with all the friendliness in the world, whereas he'd been really rude to her. He burrowed his guilt and shame, however, when she asked him if he wanted a 'little lesson' or if he was too old and strong to be lectured. It didn't take a genius to figure out that she was still talking to him as though he'd just slid out of his mother's womb, and Charon felt offended. He raised his head and tail, although he was still smaller than her, displaying that he thought he was better than her as best he could. "Don't talk to me like that!" the youngster huffed, and he stared at her, daring her to do it again.

However, when she started to talk about her interest in weather patterns and the like, Charon's guard fell a little. "You?" he said, surprise clear in his voice, and his tail dropped to a more neutral level. She went on to explain about the trees, and he looked up at the tree. He just thought it was some giant tree, and was fascinated by it for that reason, but he never thought that it could be a special tree. "What's so special 'bout this tree? 's It magical or something?" Charon looked back to the female after he asked his question, curious for the outcome of the question.
