They traveled fast and hard the next day, though due to the fact that they traveled downhill they were not as tired at the end of their hike as they had been before. All in all, they made good progress. That night they camped by a river, which allowed them to refill their stores of water with a fresh supply, and also to bathe.

Jovian paid special attention to the scrapes on his shoulders where the backpack had rubbed his skin red and irritated the day before. When he dressed in fresh clothes he felt nearly like a new person.

That night was the best they had slept in some time, and when the next day dawned it was bright and clear, devoid of fog, though the sky threatened rain.

“Another two weeks, I would hazard, and we will be out of the Sacred Forest,” Uthia told them, and though they were happy to finally see the end of their travels in the woods, they were not at all looking forward to the threat of the Shadow Realm.

Through the next few days the tension between Uthia and Jovian grew more and more, until he was picking still-living pieces of wood just to spite her. That didn’t last long when he realized he wasn’t only irritating her, but also creating more work for himself.

Not only did the tension grow between them, but also the feeling of a presence hunting them. Day in and day out they could feel whatever it was stalking them grow closer and closer until they half expected to look behind them and find the thing looming up out of the earth.

It had reached a point where Uthia finally stopped settling at night and instead stood constant vigil. The Germinant Gob began feeling as though his presence was required at night as well, and while he and Tegaris didn’t get along, the three fey creatures created a barrier around the camp at night so that the LaFaye youths could sleep in peace.

It was a strange sight to see the Germinant Gob, all leaves and branches sprouting from his body, standing menacingly. Gob stood only a little over two feet, somewhat tall for gnomes. Tegaris hovered in the air, lighting the night a third of the way around camp. Uthia was the one they counted on to really protect them, her large frame standing loosely with her wooden sword in hand.

Jovian had asked her about that sword once, for where he came from wooden swords were only ever used for practice. Uthia had let him hold the sword, which they all imagined was somewhat hard for her to do and informed him that her sword, Cataresh, was sharper than any metal sword and could cut nearly everything except other wood. In fact Uthia told him that the dryad who tried to cut wood with it would die instantly.

The next day Uthia informed them that they would be traveling through the village of Greenwood. Angelica was happy that they would finally get to spend some time among humans.
