Embry's soft, cerulean orbs traced the spectral male as he approached. He could detect a certain hostility in his motions, but from what Embry could gather it was from honorable intentions, so he remained placated. He couldn't completely connect his scent to this world they stood in - truly, this brute smelled less of the forest than of the sea - yet he appeared to retain the features of the woods, anyhow.
When the sylph spoke, Embry did not move his gaze to follow the other's. Instead, he observed the brute; trying to untangle the odd premonitions he exuded. The words he spoke were surprising, for they did not ask for any excuse or introduction for his being there. He felt as though he was in the eye of a storm: a time of confusion and serenity. Once again, Embry felt a surge of curiosity.
"Is that so?" He assumed the brute was speaking of the coast. It was the only thing beyond the forest in the direction to which his eyes were locked. However, Embry glanced around the current settings with a twinge of sympathy and reverence. "I was beginning to believe that I would never find it."
And he paused a moment to gather a long sigh of the wood's hearty, ligneous aroma. He admittedly enjoyed keeping the company of a wolf that, for once, mirrored a tame aura, if not mysterious. "Do you suppose you could take me there?"

I stopped an old man along the way,
hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies.
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you".
