A petite figure lingered in the cold woods. She pulled a dark green hood over her head as she examined the blanketed Earth around her. The elf, Faux, didn't have a very good reason to be out here, she went wherever she felt like going, she had all the time in the world to do whatever anyway. The female's keen eyes caught the glimpse of a stag propelling onward through the recurring snowstorm and examined it's agile gait as it trailed off in the opposite direction of the mountains. She continued toward the mountains, not actually wishing to climb them, but just admire their beauty.
Faux thought over the lies she had told her mother. She remembered how she had told her how she was visiting the rest of their family somewhere near the Ardwen Lake when she was actually avoiding all society. The young elf had also added on that it would only be a little while, she had no idea how long she wished to wander Algaesia but hopefully not long enough that her family would grow suspicious. She was tired of just lying around in Ellesmera, she longed for an adventure, hopefully she would get one soon.
She lithely dashed forward toward her destination, leaping up onto a large, sturdy tree and then to another. Minutes passed before a small pack of wolves gathered at the base of the tree eating off of the carcass of a doe. This was her paradise.

**Notes: Yes, I know shrrg are wolf-like creatures in the book but that doesn't mean wolves exist in the series. After looking it up, shrrg actually live in the Beor Mountains, not anywhere near the Spine.
