You find yourself in a forest, and the feeling of magic fills the air. To your surprise, the trees appear to part in front of you, revealing a hidden grove of ancient oaks in the midst of the younger, surrounding woods. Suddenly, a blue-haired elf jumps out at you, his sword drawn, yelling "Halt, intruder!!" You let out a startled yelp, and back away, only to trip and fall over a tree root.
The elf gives you a sheepish look, seeing that you mean no harm, and puts away his sword. He offers his hand to you, helping you to your feet.
"Sorry to scare you like that." He mumbles, embarrassed. "I thought you might be an unwelcome intruder, but it's obvious now that you just wandered in by chance. My name's Ferren Darkwinter. I came here from Sweet Dreams to help protect this grove."
"And he sometimes gets carried away with his duty," another elf interrupts, moodily, emerging from the trees. His hair is a few shades darker blue than Ferren's, and he's wearing dark clothes and a sober expression.
"I'm Maygus, Ferren's older brother," he announces. "Sorry about the misunderstanding. Ferren only wanted to keep the others safe. Many have come from different lands to reside here. Why don't you go meet them?"
