You find yourself at a crossroad, where two paths meet. You realize that you're at the end of the leagi path. Not terribly happy, you begin to start your trek on the main path again, but before you can a chuckle comes from your left.
The trampling of feet can be heard as a leagus leaps into view, making you step back.
"I see you are leaving us," her voice is soothing and slow. "Which is rather sad. But that is the main path, as I am sure you've guessed. Darkened Dance came and told me to make sure you go onto it without too much trouble."
You stop and say, "What kind of trouble?"
"Well, you see, there are some creatures that might take advantage of you while you are still on the Leagi path. As long as you are in the company of a leagus, that is no issue. But I was afriad that one might try to pounce you here, right where none of us would be standing and where you are technically not on the main path."
"What protects the main path, anyway?" you grumble.
"Magic, of course," she says. "Anyway, I'm Spring Leaper, and I have to go, so would you mind terribly stepping onto the path?"
You do so, and she runs off into the trees.
