A Quiet Night (Amary) | The Endless Forest

It was a quiet day. Or, night, actually. The daytime was filled with spell-spamming, with deer I hadn't met before, and some I have, though I don't know their names.

It was a little later on that I experienced nighttime in the forest for the first time. It's nice, actually, and peaceful. I noticed there were bats, too, like in the fog. But they don't bother me, unlike some deer that seem not to like them. Actually I think they're interesting.

It was night when I found Darkweaver and Bastilion...Yes, I finally learned their names. Darkweaver is the one who was part of the first fight I witnessed, though I think I actually met him as a fawn before that. We've gotten to be friends now. Even though I did see him fighting another deer, but I can't hold that against him. I mean, I don't even know why they were fighting. I've seen Virgil fight another deer, too, but I still respect him. I don't like fighting, but that shouldn't affect the way I think of someone.

Well, when I found Darkweaver, he was hurt pretty bad. I don't know what happened. Maybe he was fighting again, or maybe it was something else. I didn't think it would be a good idea to ask. Bastilion was there, too, like I said. It seems that he and Darkweaver are also friends. Since Darkweaver couldn't move very much, we just sat with him. Others were playing. Kaoori was there. She was sitting with us at first, but then she began playing with the others. I would have joined her, only...well for once, I didn't really feel like playing. I guess because I would have felt guilty, with one of my friends not being able to join in. There were several others that did sit with us. Which was nice.

Burrow showed up at one point, and I was happy to see him. The past couple of times I've seen him, he seemed...almost like a new deer. I mean, he still acts the same, but his coat seems shinier, and he seems healthier. The scars he had seem to be gone. It's funny because I hadn't really noticed them before, but I noticed that they're gone.

Burrow sat with us. And then he got up and began to dance. I couldn't resist. I danced with him. We weren't leaving our friends out. We were dancing for them.

I only wish I could have done more for Darkweaver. Something to help him heal. Or at least to feel better. But I don't know what I can do. I don't know if there is anything I can do. Though, somehow, it feels like there is...if only I knew what...

I'm worried for my friend. But even so, I felt fairly calm, otherwise, tonight. Perhaps it's just something about the night. And maybe...other things...
