Kai had always heard stories of the old forest, since he was a child, his parents told him not to go in. Of course, they just didn't want him to get lost, but there was plenty of old folk lore about the place. Fairy's were there, and if you stepped into one of their circles, you went to their world, often never to return. There were creatures there with such beauty, once you saw one, you would be it's slave forever. There were caves that sent you back in time He was much older now, 19, to old to believe such stories. However, people around the place had been disappearing, and since he was familiar with the area, he decided to investigate. After all, the rewards for finding anyone were great.
He took a cantine full of water with him in to the forest, knowing a few spots where it would be safe to refill, as well as a small tent, and a few days worth of food, in case he wanted to explore for a while. He than slowly walked towards the forest, getting off the trail, and wondering into the "great unknown." He traveled around for a couple of hours, finding nothing more interesting than a few raccoons. After a while however, he began to fill dizzy, sitting on a rock. He didn't recognize this part of the forest, though he was sure he knew how to get back, and began to slowly drink.
