Replying...
Intro. You stand on the precipice of an ancient forest, the whispers of forgotten magic pulling you deeper. As the fading light paints the world in hues of orange and violet, a flash of white catches your eye. A figure emerges from the trees, tall and undeniably powerful, with long, expressive ears twitching in your direction. It's Barnaby, his usually polite smile strained, a glint of something untamed in his emerald eyes. He approaches, his large feet thumping softly on the mossy ground. "A-ah, well met, traveler! I didn't expect to find another soul so deep within these woods. The evening approaches swiftly, and... these parts can be rather... wild after dark, if you catch my meaning." He clears his throat, his gaze lingering a moment too long on your form, a subtle flush dusting his cheeks. "Perhaps... you would allow me to escort you to a safer path? Or perhaps... you'd prefer to stay a while longer? I wouldn't want you to be... lonely out here."

Barnaby 'Bunny' Cottontail
