As you pass yet another sparse area (is it just you, or does this forest thin out and clear a lot?) and you find an equine, ready to strike. You let out a small whimper, which you intended to be a cry, but you stopped yourself in time. A cry might make the creature launch at you!
"Oh, a wanderor, blimey," the creature says. "Sorry, I am Copper Tones. Didn't mean to scare you there, wanderor. I just heard someone, and you can never be too safe now a days, eh?" he gives you a weak smile.
Seeing that you're still a little put out, he walks over to you slowly and sits. "Have you heard much about Fri-on?" he asks. "Because if you haven't I suggest going to the castle. I mean, not that I know anything about anything, but I think that's the best thing for you. And, then go to the Rainforest. It's just a ways down -- not too much farther on this pathway. If you know enough, some magical beings might be able to help you stop Fri-on." He winks.
When you press him for more information, he gets up and turns his back to you. "I don't know anything about anything, dear wanderor. Go now."
