Honeyed Pasture I don't know who to trust

Melaneus had wished the stranger Rodyn might return to the Weald, but as the days passed him by, the hope of that seemed to dim.

The child had snuck out again, but not beyond the shelter of the Weald. He knew what he did was dangerous, but he knew, instinctually, that stepping into the pasture and out of his glade of shadows would be more dangerous than what he wished to test.

As it was, he wished to see sunlight again. So he watched from his shelter and stared out into the brightened day, watching the birds in the sky, the grass in the breeze, and every creature who might pass by.

Can be interacted with or a cameo, depending on where Rodyn is! Mel’s on the very edge of Deepwood Weald, and I don’t mind if his starting presence is noticed haha!
