Chapter 1 – Beginning With Light
In the darkness of night amongst the Forest, lights moved quickly and evenly through the trees. Although the light of day had faded long before, the candles illuminated pale antlers, and creamy-brown heads. Every fawn, doe and stag was adorned with these glowing beauties as they all made their separate ways towards a shining mass of stone.

The Ename Ruins were alight with candles deposited by those who had already reached their destinations. Twenty or so deer were grouped around and inside the structure, chatting, dancing and enjoying themselves. A few deer lifted their heads to greet those who had just arrived. Vipin was the first to greet Aeros and Naire as they stepped into the light. “Good evening.” His voice was deep and comfortable. Aeros inclined his head respectfully, murmuring a hello. Naire, however, just grinned and looked around. “Loop and the other guys here yet?”

Vipin ignored her rudeness. It was the way she’d been from the day she appeared in the Forest. “I saw Corsair with Emiva a few minutes ago,” he replied with a jerk of his antlers. “By the cage.” Naire nodded and trotted away. Her uncle watched her go with a sigh. “She’s getting more testy every day now.” He chuckled to himself. “I suppose I should expect it.” He, too, padded off to talk to Seele, nodding at Vipin as he went.

Naire found Corsair using his usual gentlemanly charm on Emiva and some other does. Nudging his rear, she called, “Finished flirting yet?” He turned his head and rolled his eyes at her. “Nice to see you too, buttsniffer.” She shrugged indifferently. “I’ve been called worse, man. Loop, what’s up?” The smaller doe looked around from where she was talking with an older stag and Miss Tuna. “Just fine,” she answered. Naire grinned and started to chat with the others.

It was a peaceful night, until the fawn came.
