Shrugging the thought off, she continued through the forest, spotting faded footsteps and strange objects in the snow. Kneeling next to a strange object embedded in the snow, she wrapped her hand around the handle, noticing that she was handling a sword of some sort. She pulled it out of the ground,and gasped when she saw that it had her name written on it,”W-What?” Shaking her head, she dug futher into the snow, and arched an eyebrow when she pulled a sheath out.

Swarine shrugged and pulled her cloak around her tighter. She’d explore the forest first. She didn’t feel like talking to anyone first thing in the morning. Shrugging, she pulled her hood down and pulled a small mirror out of her bag. She grimaced when she saw her hair in mass tangles, and she sighed before taking the braid down and brushing her insanely long hair out. Feeling too lazy to pull her hair back up in a braid or pony tail, she slung her bag back over her shoulder and began to wander through the forest. Her eyes scanned the area, taking in her surroundings, and deciphering any past secrets some of the trees and plants hold. She enjoyed the peace, yet at the same time, she felt as if she were slowly forgetting her old life within her kingdom. She would wake up to the townspeople trading and talking, and now.. She woke up to silence…

~ Time Skip: Next Day ~
Swarine sighed and hung upside down from the tree branch. Mornings here were oddly quiet… She shrugged and jumped down, looking around the forest. Maybe she should go explore the forest… Or the village. She wasn’t sure which she would go explore first.
-
Swarine sighed and walked out into the snow. Maybe she should just walk around the village for a while… She yawned. Or camp out on a branch until morning… That sounds more reasonable. She disappeared into the forest and jump into the trees, smiling to herself as she thought of home. She knew it wouldn’t be the same… She leaned against the tree trunk and sighed before closing her eyes and falling asleep.

Swarine turns to Liv and lightly smiles,”You seem tired…” She glanced out the window and sighed,”It is beginning to get dark…” She slipped the map back into the bag and smiled,”I’ll be taking my leave now. I hope you two have a wonderful night.”
-
Swarine shrugged and replied,”We were a very simple society.”
-
Swarine pulled a map out of her backpack before spreading it out on a table. She pointed to the four fallen kingdoms,”I am from the Kingdom of Peace…” She strightened and blinked a few times before sighing,”Our ceremonies we only for three occasions. The Prince becoming the king, anyone in the royal family being married, or when death hit our home…” She took a step back and lightly smiled,”I only threw the dagger because you were shooting at me. Sorry bout that…”
-
She sighed,”I mean in a different region. Where I come from, we had ceremonies similar, but not quite the same.” She adjusted her backpack strap and pulled one of her daggers out. She examined it for a moment before sighing again,”I’m going back home to see if any of the villages over there are still standing…”
-
Swarine sighed and stood up after tening to her wound,”Oh… I’ll be in a different village by then….”
-
Swarine lightly smiled and took the cloth,”I’ll do that myself. Thanks.” She glanced out the window and sighed,”Now… When is the Thing going to take place? You never told me.”
-
Swarine turned her head and remained quiet as she watched Liv stir the herbs. She adjusted her cloak again before listening to their conversation…
-
Swarine smiled and watched with curiousity,”Strange… Reminds me of magic, except you’re using herbs.” She glanced at the window to the outside world and sighed as she saw it was beginning to get dark,”So, what holidays to your people celebrate?”
-
Swarine lightly smiled and nodded awkwardly,”Actually… Do you have any medical equipment?” She pulled her cloak back a bit, revealing a large gash in her leg from where she fell earlier,”I need to clean this up some before it gets infected…”
-
Swarine remained silent for a moment before quietly replying,”It was your people who brought my kingdom down…” She sighed and looked up,”I don’t have anything against anyone here anymore. The past is in the past, y’know?”
-
Swarine nodded and leaned against the wall, her dark eyes clouded with the thought of her little brother. He never got to see his kingdom flourish. The poor boy, struck down when he was only a child… He had a whole life ahead of him… She pulled her hood up again and sighed,”My brother never got to attend such a thing… It was the year of his ceremony when him and the rest of my kingdom were struck down…” She shook her head and leaned back, lost in her thoughts.
