~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~
~~~(Location: Approaching The Jungles of Nae'mor, The Continent of Alforza)~~~
~~~(Ti: 9:44 AM)~~~
Sally and I have been traveling over the last 5 days trying to find The Jungle of Nae'mor, and now we're approaching our next destination. Things have been both good and bad between us since our argunt. And we've been fighting on and off about it.
The downside to this is we don't really know where we are. The Jungles of Nae'mor are 1000 miles from The Kingdom of Nu'bor. The maps we bought are only for Nu'bor and the neighboring Kingdoms.
That didn't include much, and now our maps are useless again. Well, it's not entirely aningless, but it's definitely not helping.
"Those trees are huge... It's almost unnatural..."
There have been many tis I've been in and seen forests in The Ancients World, but this is by far the place with the tallest and largest trees.
Sally is the one to make this observation, which is when I slow down. I don't want to soar over the jungle at full speed. She leans up and looks closer as we reach the treeline and start flying over. We're here because we found out this is where The Dark Elves reside.
They're supposed to be a rumor, but we found the Lore Scroll explaining what happened to the Cezlitian people. And it also told us where we could find The Dark Elves.
"I don't think finding The Dark Elves will be easy. We don't know how big this jungle is and how deep it goes."
Jungles have multiple ecological levels to them, and each level is a different ecosystem. And this place is no exception.
"Of course, it won't be easy, but that's part of the fun. We have to look for them. This is so exciting! I never thought I'd et Dark Elves!"
She's celebrating too soon, but I don't mind. As long as she's off my case for a while, I'm okay with her celebrating too early.
Regarding my excitent, I'm more on guard than anything else. The Dark Elves aren't a people I know about. All I know is they're supposed to be in Alforza sowhere. If we ever find The Dark Elves, I look forward to eting the peaceful Nomadic High Orcs after.
"Should we search the jungle below us or continue flying over it?"
That's a good question, and while flying over the jungle will be faster, we'll miss structures or locations that are hidden under the jungle canopy. I'm not going to miss out on what's down there, and at her question, I dive down suddenly.
She was not expecting that.
"YOU DICK HEEAAADDD!!"
As I dive fast and break through the canopy, I dodge between trees and hold my speed. Spinning and rolling in the air. She's kicking and screaming for to stop, but I can tell she's enjoying it too.
After a couple of seconds, I slow down and gently land on the ground. The wet ground and mud are hard to traverse, but it's not the hardest environnt I've walked around in. Sally hops off and sinks into the wet ground.
"We must keep moving to ensure we're not consud by the jungle floor. Hop along the tree roots. It's the fastest way to travel on the ground."
Sally does what I say and follows behind . But I'm more distracted by the sheer size of the jungle. Everything in here is just so much bigger than everything else. Limbs, plants, fruit, and common animals that aren't hostile.
We're skipping along the tree roots when I start to feel soone watching us. We're pretty deep into the jungle at this point, and I wouldn't be surprised if more dangerous animals, monsters, or creatures started to appear.
"Do you also feel the eyes on us..."
She feels it too... We both stop and look around our current area. Nothing stands out, but that watched feeling continues. It feels like it's moving when we move and stopping when we stop. One of the only tis I've encountered sothing like this.
It's a sign of a highly intelligent animal and sothing that knows how to hunt and track while staying out of sight.
"We can feel you looking at us!! Why not co out and talk!?"
Announcing to whoever is watching us could be considered stupid, but at this point, I know they've got a good brain between their ears. And I'm hoping that the ones watching us are scouts or hunters for The Dark Elves that are supposed to be in this forest.
There is no response, and it's not surprising. Announcing to the people watching us wouldn't normally work, so no reason to do it now. But Sally has other ideas than giving up on this.
"I'm also an Elf! I'm from across The Sea of Relsarmoder! I've co a long way to et The Dark Elves!"
That's actually sothing that might work and gain their attention to co out of hiding. All of a sudden, a dashing blur cos out of so branches and sits on a branch above and away from us.
The person in question is a sharp-eared and dark-skinned elf holding a bow and pointing an arrow our way. She's a Dark Elf, and I'll admit she's very beautiful. It's not sothing that I'd say out loud when Sally's next to , but she's hot!
"Why have you into our lands, strangers? Most thinking beings don't know we exist anymore. It begs the question of how you know."
Her voice is smooth and silky, and I'm finding myself dumber and dumber in her presence. The next thing I know, Sally is elbowing my ribs and looking at , extrely annoyed.
Yikes. That's not going to help hard rough patch.
"We don't an any harm..."
I indicate for her to give her na, and she squints her eyes ever so slightly.
"Jaeemara Veezk."
That's a unique na ever for an elf, but this is a different part of the world. So maybe it's common here.
"Hello, Jaeemara. This is Saliandra Orvello, and I'm Slayer Zern."
She raises her eyebrows and pulls back on her bow a little more.
"Prove it."
That's not a problem. I toggle my wings on, and they spread out wide. Her eyes widen as her bow is imdiately lowered. As she does this, more and more Dark Elves start coming out of the jungle. I'm guessing this is a party of scouts.
"We're sorry for the rude treatnt Angel Zern. We have to be extra cautious of those that find themselves this deep into the jungle. The people that know we're here are either our great friends or great enemies."
Jaeemara starts to explain why she did what she did as she jumps down from her branch and lands on the tree roots closest to us.
"There is no need to apologize. We're here uninvited. We've co a long way to see The Dark Elves. If you'd welco us, we'd be most appreciative."
Before she answers , her eyes run up and down my armor and body. Taking extra long on my wings, and that's when Sally steps closer to and wraps her arm in mine. There is a look exchanged between the two of them.
I don't want to say it, but I'll think it. While I love Sally's body and how perfectly proportioned it is, she can't compare to the outrageous figure Jaeemara has. Her curves and other parts are... Pronounced to say the least.
"You're more than welco to follow us. The City of Dark Elves is cloaked by Invisibility a few miles ahead. While we're a single city, it's the largest in all of Gaia. It holds all of our citizens."
Sally holds a bit tighter in her grasp as the girl turns around and looks back at with a smirk. Knowing that I'm getting an eyeful of her figure. I slowly turn to look at Sally, and I see she's not happy with or Jaeemara. Not one bit.
