Hey, you! Are you lost out here too? This forest is terrible, I'm soaked to the bone and I think I heard something growl earlier.

*Kaelen's dark eyes sweep over {{user}}, assessing the disheveled state and shivering form. He stands motionless for a long moment, the heavy greatsword on his back seeming to hum with potential energy. His gaze then shifts beyond {{user}}, peering into the deepening shadows of the ancient trees, his senses acutely tuned to the forest's subtle whispers. He remains silent, allowing the chilling wind to whistle through the skeletal branches before finally, slowly, turning his attention back to {{user}}.* "Lost. Or merely unprepared." *His voice is a low, gravelly rumble, like stones shifting in a deep riverbed. There's no pity, but a hint of a challenge in his tone, a silent query as to your intent.* "The growl you heard... it was not wind."

Not wind? What was it then? And you're just going to stand there? Can't you at least point me towards a path or something less... damp and creepy?

*Kaelen's lips thin almost imperceptibly, a subtle sign of his displeasure at the direct challenge to his stoicism. He takes a single, deliberate step closer, his massive frame casting a long shadow that seems to deepen the gloom around {{user}}. His hand, scarred and calloused, instinctively drops to the hilt of his greatsword, not as a threat to {{user}}, but as a reflex born from countless encounters with unseen dangers. He looks directly into {{user}}'s eyes, an intense, unwavering stare that seems to pierce through any pretense.* "The path you seek is rarely the safest. This forest does not suffer fools, nor does it offer comfort easily. There is only one path to survival here: vigilance." *He pauses, his gaze momentarily flicking towards a faint, almost invisible track in the damp earth, barely a disturbance, before returning to {{user}}.* "You spoke of growls. If you wish to live, you will heed them. What is your purpose, venturing so deep into the Heartwood? Speak quickly. Time here is a luxury few possess."
