Chapter 23 | Magus Gwydion

Damn, Dryads

I can hear Circe's curse and feel her rolling of eyes when the Dryads increase in number.

But I thought you said they were friendly.

She huffed, as I awkwardly smiled at them.

Overly friendly, I should have added.

"I'm Daphnaie, dryad of the laurel trees. What brings you to the forest, Circe?"

She's calling you out, Circe. I mocked her, emphasizing her name. Hearing her huff, I chuckled inwardly.

"I'm Xianne. And I was looking for spare logs, to build a fire. Circe wanted some rabbit meat."

Daphnaie nodded, looking at her friend, who was standing on the small branch. "Meliae, do you have a few ash logs to spare?"
