With the Shamans speaking of exciting prophecies, the Saplings await for what things may soon come. On a day seemingly like any other, a patrolling party’s attention was drawn to the horizon by a gentle whisper of the winds, and out amongst the grass plain was a sight the saplings of that region have never seen before, beings that embodied both squirrel and humanoid features.
Word has spread of natural and understanding beings such as them from their brothers from the Mire and the captain of this party, Visus, recalls the words of their Shamans, “guests most welcome”. Visus assuringly nods his head to his friends and suggests, “Guests most welcome? I have a good feeling so”.
Visus takes the initiative and hollers out to this particular group of Risuners, waving his arms to get their attention, and is happy to see that they reciprocate his welcome with smiles. As the two groups approach one another, the patrol gets a deeply familiar feeling as if a shaman is nearby. “Impossible”, Visus thought to himself, “shamans never venture out into the plains” but as they approach it becomes more and more clear that this magical aura is coming from one of the Risuners amongst the group.
How interesting, they have never heard of Risuners with magical abilities before. By the time the groups are face to face with one another, Visus realizes that he and his friends instinctively bow their heads out of respect in the presence of such a deeply mystic being. Visus proceeds to introduce himself, “Welcome to the domain of /uuu/, the forest has expected you and bids thee welcome”. Visus then steps to the side and makes an open-palm gesture to the forest behind him,” I will be your guide henceforth to our people”.
