The Silent Forest

In the woods of a silky grey forest, the sound of a sigh could be heard, like the breath of a slumbering dragon. The mist covered the floor of the forest, blanketing it in a thin white veil. The grass on the forest floor was gray with tints of green. Through the forest, no animals were in sight, all that could be seen was the deathly pale bark of the trees.

*Crunch* *Crunch*

The sounds of boots crunching on the fallen leaves echoed through the forest, its sound low and empty. From the mists, two large figures and a smaller figure appeared. Soon, their figures could be seen. A man and a woman walked side by side, a small cat trekking on the ground besides them. 

"Hmm, this place is eerily quiet…" Lin Ke said, moving a twig out of his way. When his hand made contact with the branch, he got a small shock up his arm, making his hand tingle. The branch felt weird, it was slippery, like an eel and felt scaly.
