Ravensblood Forest The last wish.

Vesper. He answered quickly, perhaps a bit sharper than necessary.

The sound of something moving further along made Mou pause, turning his full attention towards the noise; but it was likely only the wind, as nothing emerged from among the twisting shadows. He sighed, his broad shoulders hunching.

If she was gone then that would be another loss, thought Mou. He didn't want to accept that the family was still cursed, that their good luck only came while upon the island. That gave him a new thought - and a turn of his body to the direction he had come from - Maybe she went back.

The island had been the only home @Vesper had ever known. It was either that or the novelty of the mainland that had drawn her focus; but whatever the reason, Mou was determined to find her. He looked to the stranger finally, almost timidly, not wanting to miss any possible movement or sounds within the surrounding forest.

I am Mou. My family are traveling. If you see her, will you call?
