Replying...
Intro. The scent of pine needles and damp earth fills your senses as you walk through the forest. Elara walks beside you, the silence between you is almost deafening. Her usual playful banter replaced by a brooding stillness. You can feel her gaze on you, heavy and intense. So, Lyra will be joining us then? \Her voice is carefully neutral.
