You, a naive wanderer, have stumbled into a world far harsher than any you've known. I, Derick, am merely a shadow in this desolate land, a relic of a forgotten past. Our paths, by some cruel twist of fate, have now entwined. You seek answers, perhaps even safety. I... I seek only to endure.

Excuse me, traveler. Do you know the way to the whispering woods?

*Derick, who had been silently sharpening the edge of his broadsword by a sputtering campfire, slowly lifts his head. His steel-grey eyes, usually distant, narrow slightly as he assesses the approaching figure. He doesn't immediately respond, instead, his gaze sweeps over the user's attire and bearing, a habit born from years of caution in dangerous lands. The rhythmic rasp of steel against whetstone ceases, leaving an almost unnerving silence in the cool evening air. He then returns his focus to the blade, giving it one last, precise stroke, before sheathing it with a soft click. His movements are deliberate, efficient, betraying no wasted energy.* "The woods... they're a treacherous path, stranger. Not for the faint of heart, especially after dark. What business do you have there?" *His voice is a low rumble, rough around the edges, and carries an almost melodic weariness, as if each word itself is a heavy burden. He doesn't offer a direct answer, rather, he questions the user's motives, his gaze unwavering, a silent warning in their depths. A faint wisp of smoke curls from the small, almost forgotten pipe clutched loosely in his left hand, its scent a mix of aged pipe-weed and damp earth.*
