Part 1 – Nights in the Glade

When Nera awoke in the morning the light was streaming down into the clearing. He looked around wondering if what he saw during the night was real or just a dream. If it was real what had happened after the stag looked at Nera, straining to remember his head grew weary and he collapsed back into a sleep.

It was early afternoon by the time Nera woke once more. Feeling light headed and rather parched he hung his head over the rocks and took a mouthful of water. Something stirred in the forest outside the clearing and Nera paused, looking up to see where the noise had come from. His ears pricked up as another noise, this time closer, came from outside the clearing.

Feeling weak and very exposed, Nera crept backwards off the rocks and took cover behind a large rotting log on the edge of the clearing. Just as he settled in, a noise on the other side of the clearing announced someone else’s arrival. To scared to peak out and see who was there, Nera steadied himself and tried as best he could to make no noise. Leaves crunched under the weight of footsteps and Nera’s breath grew heavy as the sound came around to the side of the clearing where he hid.

Nera heard the clattering of hooves against stone and grew curious enough to poke his head out from behind his cover. Slowly and carefully he peaked around the side of the log, but saw nothing in the clearing. Confused, Nera poked his head further out to better see the surroundings; just as he did he felt a tap on his shoulder. Nera jumped and fell to the ground; he scrambled to turn around and saw the black stag, staring down at him. Warmth flooded Nera’s body and as the stag leaned down to him, he felt a kind and gentleness coming from him. Still frightened, Nera tried moving but vines and flowers had risen from the ground entangling his body. A sharp pain spread across him as one of the vines coursed over the wound on his leg, leaving a throbbing reminder of his clumsiness.

A journey into the endless forest (Prologue)

Nera was always a problem child for his parents and would never listen to them, preferring instead to run away by himself and adventure. He spent hours each day exploring the forests of his homeland, pretending he was a great stag who ruled over his realm.
He had few friends and was smaller than most of the other fawns in the forest, usually getting picked on by them and chased away from the favoured playgrounds. He learnt from an early age all the different hiding places in his forest and was very clever in making himself disappear if things didn't go how he wanted. Which was often the case whenever the bigger deer chased him.

One day while pretending to be a great stag the bigger deer found Nera and chased him through the forest, so disoriented from his day dreaming Nera took off and forgot all about his hiding spots. He was chased a long way and when they finally gave up chase Nera collapsed to the ground heaving a sigh of relief, only to realise he was in a part of the forest he didn't know. Panicked, Nera got up and looked around, it was a dark part of the forest but there was a faint ray of light in the distance.

Sooooo.... I'm the new fawn in the forest, I'd like to say hi and tell you a little about myself =)

My name's Nera, I have a great big personalty and I love to play. My favourite game is tag and I love attention. I'm very hyper active so I don't spend to much time sitting down and I can be a little pushy at times, but I always mean well and look out for my friends. Oh and I may be small but I'm not shy hehe...

I look forward to meeting everyone =)
