The evergreen forests creak in the night, masking the slightest of noises to average ears. I did not fear the unheard nor the unseen. In darkness I thrived.
Though I do not expect the sudden sound of another, I did not react in any way to its coming. Continuing as I was, piercing the flesh of the great tree, I let the question linger between us.
Silence was not awkward for the huntress, interactions pricked along my flesh more. Truthfully I was hardly a welcoming creature, and so when I turn to answer the stranger my voice is stale of emotion, "decorating."
Straightening myself, I face the other and address them further, "What are you doing in my trees?" The possession is clear in my tone as my silver eyes judge the darkling creature.
