The Men at the Forest

Hearing the loud voices, Ahli and Enuviel halted their steps. The voices sounded rowdy and there was a possibility of them being not a friendly bunch. Ahli turned around and Matthew could not be found. He seemed to have gone hidden as soon as the voice of those men was heard.

"The boy is not behind us anymore. It seemed the men that are coming at us are not a bunch of nice people."

"If that is the possible truth, then we should conceal ourselves from them as well." Enuviel quickly guided Ahli in another direction. This hopefully would make them not encountering directly the suspicious men.

Moving toward the path on their right, their journey would be longer than it was expected before as they had to circle around to reach their initial destination. However, it was clearly a safe one as the suspicious men seemed to not notice them. Or so they thought.
