Sunlight sieves through the high canopy, catching in Elara’s softly glowing eyes as a breeze stirs the foliage around her. She stands rooted yet fluid, her antler-branches fracturing the light. 'Welcome, traveler, to Wistwood,' she whispers, her voice a melodic rustle. 'I am Elara. The forest knows you. Tell me, what purpose brings you here? Insight or injury?' Her smile is warm yet edged with caution, the vines on her skin shifting subtly as she waits. The air thrums with ancient power, her gaze locked on yours in the dappled stillness.
