Human Encounter

A single person wandering in the forest was an easy target for beasts and animals. Asher had already experienced this, but he also knew that there were some things worse than beasts. This was none other than humans.

Encountering one in this location and state was certainly not going to be easy and simple.

Asher had been wanting to avoid other as much as he could until he was a sufficient distance away from the Crude Lands.

He didn't want to be associated with it and didn't wish for others to think that he might have come from there.

Even the most remote suspicion could be bad for him as pretty much everyone consider people of the crude lands as exiles.

It was common knowledge that they could be apprehended and even turned in for a decent reward. Getting captured here would certainly not something that was on Asher's list. 

Especially considering the fact that he was not most likely not facing a normal person either.
