 I have never been this deep into the forest and off the road before, making sure to stay behind the person in front of me. I completely lost my bearings at first, all the trees look the same, the bushes, the mud... nothing ever changes. I realized that the man in front, rather then looking ahead or to the sides spent most of his time looking at the ground. After a while I realized he was reading it, following the trail of a deer. Once I asked I learned that we have been following the same set of tracks for hours now. I tried to look at the ground and see the things he saw. I managed to spot a few deer tracks along the way but I could have never followed the trail for so long.
-Suddenly the man at the head of the party signaled a halt. No one made a sound and I did my best to follow their lead. The men dismounted their horses and tethered them to a nearby branch, Raykard beckoned me to him once I had tethered my own horse. He pointed into the bushes to our left. He started walking and as he did motioned to follow and drew his bow. I did the same. After going in a rather large circle I finally spotted the three deer in a clearing through the bushes, realizing the wind at my face which was probably the reason for the long round about.

The men dismounted their horses and tethered them to a nearby branch, Raykard beckoned me to him once I had tethered my own horse. He pointed into the bushes to our left and started walking in the opposite direction, motioned to follow and drew his bow. I did the same. After going in a rather large circle I finally spotted the deer in a clearing through the bushes, two does and a large buck. realizing the wind at my face which was probably the reason for the long round about.
-He stopped then, passing his gaze over my bow and onto my eyes, then looking at the deer. At that moment I realized the entire party was looking at me, completely silent, some with very serious expressions and others looking amused. I remembered Raykard telling me that the fastest way to kill an animal was hit the heart or through the eye. I didn't think I could hit the eye and wasn't quite sure where the heart was. I remembered one of the conversations the men had around the fire one night, one of them said that the best way to make sure it does not get away is to shoot it in the neck, he said to aim right at the center. I held my bow up and found my target, made sure my footing was steady and the animal still, I released my arrow, hit a little lower then I aimed.

-The deers head shot up and it leaped in my direction. I froze,  looking at what seemed to be terror in its eyes. Raykard straightened up and started yelling while waving his arms in the air, the deer reversed direction instantly and I got splashed across the face with its blood. I was entranced with the gushing red fluid pulsing out of its neck in violent bursts. It bolted and I lost sight of it in the woods.  Raykard put his arm on my shoulder, I realized I was shaking. He beckoned to follow him, I was dazed, only vaguely aware of the grizzly trail we where following.

 Covering the grass and mud and trees. It felt queer under my boots. Now I understand what they meant when they said it does not stand a chance of getting away.

 I spent more and more time out in the forest, venturing by my own on occasion. [[gerold_lynderly|Gerolds]] escape and recapture didn't come as much of a surprise. Though the state [[justine_lynderly|father]] kept him in upon returning was. I would sneak to his cell every night to get him some proper food and drink, though it kept me away from the forest I couldn't just leave. I could see how bitter [[gerold_lynderly|Gerold]] was turning, I knew this wouldn't be his last attempt. And indeed two years later he had vanished, taking [[justine_lynderly|fathers]] best horse with him. [[justine_lynderly|Father]] was furious, I was glad he had made his escape while I was out in the woods, he probably did it so I wouldn't stop him but in the process he also saved me the initial madness that must have occurred.
-With [[gerold_lynderly|Gerold]] and [[kara_lynderly|Kara]] both gone there was hardly a reason to stay in the castle, [[thomas_stone|Thomas]] still a boy  the only thing that kept me coming back was Jayne, she has never been the smartest of girls but she was witty enough to keep me interested and nice enough to warm my bed at night, could count on her to help me fall asleep during my nights in the castle, somehow it has always been easier for me to sleep in the woods. I have always felt an affinity to the old gods, especially since [[Keyya_locke|mother]] died. About a year after [[gerold_lynderly|Gerolds]] escape I received first word that he was well and had joined a group of outlaws. I spent most of my time in the woods sleeping under the sky. Occasionally I would stay in a local village, offering game and my healing skills for a place to stay ,wine and information. At one such night I was told by one the villagers that [[kara_lynderly|Kara]] had returned to the castle and was very ill.

 I got on my horse and made my way back to the castle at day brake. I made good time taking the straightest route possible while avoiding the swamps. It took [[kara_lynderly|Kara]] about a week to recover which seemed rather odd considering the death of everyone else who caught this disease. But the announcement by our [[justine_lynderly|father]] that [[gerold_lynderly|Gerold]] was dead quickly turned my attention. I couldn't believe it, I always thought that somehow if something happened to him I would know and [[justine_lynderly|father]] didn't have any actual proof, just rumors and speculations.
