You approach a small, green canine sitting on a rock. Her back is turned to you, revealing a small swirling pattern on her back. As you approach, she does not move, and you are making a lot of noise. You stop a few feet from her, just in case you spook her.
"Hello," you say. She turns slowly and looks you over. You make a quick introduction, and she nods along with all your information, as if agreeing.
"I'm Aen," she says spritely. "Soon I'll be heading up to the ocean for a quick swim.Right now, though, I'm watching the wave patterns. When it's a bit more settled, I might even be able to fish!"
You ask her where she lives. She shrugs.
"I live in the Wood, where ever I want. I prefer this half of it, though."
"What's the other half?" you ask.
She looks at you curiously. "When you enter the Wood, you may either explore the lead path or the split path. The lead path, where you are now, is far more interesting. Although the split path is much safer."
