Chapter 6 - Soft Words

Jaclyn's grip released on the doe's throat, the lioness stumbling back and turning her head to see a deep wound on her shoulder. Zephyr quickly sat up and gasped for air, shaking her head and trying to clear her vision. She saw Jaclyn lose her strength, collapsing to the ground and breathing heavily.

BANG! Another shot startled Zephyr, the bullet striking a tree nearby her head. She darted away, her eyes on the fallen lioness for the moment, and clearing the open area she leapt into a thick underbrush. The doe's peacock-like feathers provided camouflage as she turned and watched a human approach the lioness.

"Lost the deer...", he said to himself, "It's too bad. I don't know why the rangers are protecting the lions around here..." The man knelt and took another look at the lioness before standing and walking off.

Zephyr waited a few moments, making sure the man had left before she escaped. She started to walk off when she looked back at the lioness. She just tried to kill you., Zephyr thought, Just leave her. She deserves it. The doe took a few more steps before stopping and looking back again. "I must be out of my mind...", she said to herself, and quickly ran to the lioness' side.

The predator was still breathing, but she was out cold. Zephyr lifted Jaclyn's body onto her back. The lioness was much heavier than she expected, but she was able to manage her.

Walking uphill with her on Zephyr's back proved to be a difficult task. The snow sank under her feet faster, and she could feel her legs become sore. Still, she was determined to save her attacker, though the walk seemed to last for an eternity.

I took some random sreenshots today. I tried at editing one. Here is is:

I'm happy of how it turned out

This is a REALLY stupid question, butum. I want to write a diary entry for yesterday, and I was wondering what you want me to write as Seth's dialogue when they were by the pond. xD If you even remember the little exchange they had, that is.

Sorry for bothering you with such an odd question, lol. <333

The little fawn quickly discovered that the only way to change his color was for other deer to do it for him. And he must do it to other deer. It was the way things worked. Selfishness was not allowed in this forest.

He often practiced his magic. He loved to zip by deer and quickly change their color, trying to surprise them with the amazing gift. Unfortunately he would often trip over his own hooves and ruin the surprise.

He found that you could also give masks to deer… and even antlers! Oh, how he loved antlers. They were like carrying two great trees on your head! And the fawn loved trees. Especially those skinny white ones in the sunny part of the forest…

Yes, it was fun to cast magic on other deer. And even more fun when it was cast upon you, though the fawn only had this pleasure once in a rare while. He didn’t mind. The forest was enough to keep his little mind distracted. He was easily distracted.

One day he found a big herd of deer gathered around a tree. They were quite large deer… and a bit intimidating. Especially when they were all crowded together like that. Sometimes deer didn’t notice the smaller beings at their feet. What if he was stepped on?

He puffed up his chest and strolled into their group. He looked up at the grown-up faces. They were talking and laughing amongst themselves. Did they notice him? He didn’t care… he was in the grown-up group now!

Something cold touched Chenaniah’s ear. His ear flicked as he opened his eyes.

The land was whitewashed in a chilly mist. Small snowflakes fell softly to the ground. Chenaniah shivered. The cold snow didn’t register well in his memories.

What type of cool fonts are available for the endless forest??? Could someone give me a list?

[center]ABOUT HJORTAR


Sorry if you et annoyed with me updating this a lot. I always think of new things to add and things to remove.

Name: Hjortar (Means DEER in Svenska/Swedish)

Pronounced: Joor-tar (Forgive me if this isn't how its pronounced in Svenska. I'm no expert at that language.)

Picture(s): | Front View | Side View | Mask |

Gender: Stag/Buck/Male

Age: Hjortar doesn't really age, probably due to all of the Forest's mushrooms he has eaten. They've given the effect of everlasting on him. He's around 200 years old though.

Date of Birth: November 28th, 1900s.

Personality: Hjortar is a quiet deer and usually keeps to himself. He enjoys wandering the forest in solitude and staring at the river watching the koi play. He does enjoy company though and will never refuse it if it is given, though he might be shy at first. He'll run and play with any deer for as long as they'd like, but he will often grow weary and run off. If he does, don't be offended, Hjortar just needs some time alone to think about nothing. If you'd like to join him though, he'll most likely be sitting at the koi pond.
Hjortar is a very clumsy runner. He'll often stumble or flat out fall over while trying to stop.
He enjoys playing with fawns and unnamed deer, this is probably because he doesn't feel awkward around them like he would with most other deer.

this is the zim forum. ik this has nothing to do with endless forest but oh well
i make zim characters on paint. make me a request and discription of you and ill draw it and post it on the ZIM forum.
