"Yes, child, this is a town. Tanglewood, to be precise." the goddess spoke gently, silver eyes catching a shade of green in them as she approached the boy. She winced at the birds, but smiled anyway. "Are you okay?" she tilted her head. Gently she sat down and squinted at the sun.

LIKE WHAT YOU SEE? THEN YOU GOT GOOD VISION
BOY, THIS BEAT HITS SO DIFFERENT.

The heat was becoming much more oppressive as days went on. The temperature seemed to be increasing and a dry heat was settling in. Most of the days were spent inside but the heat still reigned supreme. It was almost like not breathing as the dry air filled her lungs and she sighed before shaking her head a bit. Stepping outside of the house she lightly stepped down the porch, hoping to find something nice to give to Arrow and Ares. She wondered what gifts that they would want. Her crocodile skull served to keep her a little shaded, so she wore it today. Painted body easily moving and rippling underneath her burnt orange blotched pale pelt. That was at least till she spotted Starmap talking to a child. Her head turned slightly as she looked at the two, realizing then that the child was well, not from Tanglewood. Odd. But she remembered when she had first gotten here how many kids seemed to end up along upon their lands.

With light steps the Luminary made her way over, tilting her body as the clacking of beads in her flaming hair sounded out. "He shouldn't be wandering on his own. It's dangerous in the swamp. Where did he come from?" Was he looking for someplace to stay? If so she was sure they could find room for him. They had plenty of barren homes and getting him out of this head would be a good idea. Food and water too should he provided.

Of all the groups to get lost in, Tanglewood was likely one of the worst. There were many dangers in the swamp, but fortunately it seemed like this lost child made it safely to town. Atbash came to stand next to Elsweyr, a frown on her face. She was concerned, but there were enough questions in the air. She didn't want to overwhelm the poor kid.
