The Veilwood Haven

"ok we will seek you have 45 seconds to hide" sneakily pits a small spell on her shirts collar that lets him know she is safe and if danger comes around repels it "starting now go hide"

she jumped off of his lap and ran outside to find a place to hide.

SaraBella watched her run outside. "should we let her go out there alone?..."

"it's fine I placed a spell on her to ensure her safety for her to grow up happy and full of life you have to let her roam free a little bit but that doesn't mean I can't have a back up" shows a link to the magic he placed on her to sarabella " see she's safe right now if she is in danger it would glow red and if it's bad danger it would retaliate and blow away whatever attacks her"

Elenore wandered further into the forest looking for a place to hide. she shifted into her bunny form hoping it would make it harder to find her.

Kalvath finishes counting to 45 and begins looking for her and drags snowbell along for the ride" nori where are you hiding come on out we have snaaaaacks"

Elenore giggled. she wasn't going to fall for that, although temping. she was hiding in a hole in the ground. little did she know though, the hole wasn't necessarily safe...there was a poisonous snake lurking near that hole, maybe in it.

Kalvath smells danger and burst forth at a speed sarabella can't keep up with to get that snake before anything happens

Elenore didnt realize. She was just happily hiding and waiting in this hole.

Sensing something was wrong SaraBella shifted and ran to the area Kal was running towards.

Kal grabs the snake and obliterates it before anyone notices looks at sarabella who arrives just after he released his instincts and has a fearful look on his face like she's gonna be scared of him now or hate him so he drops the snake and run up a tree mentally freaking out but is still supplying elenores protection spell with mana

Elenore stares at the snake on the ground. Her eyes tear up a bit, but then she looks up at the tree where he ran. "You...saved me..."

SaraBella runs over to the tree, still in fox form. She puts her front paws up on it but she can't climb trees. Her tail sways "what are you doing? Why are you hiding from me?"

Without looking down he replies " cause you saw that and how violent I was your gonna be terrified of me or hate me now it's what always happens"

"sorry little nori for scaring you"

Meanwhile, unaware of all what's happening at Veilwood Haven, Lizbeth says goodbye to her old home. Max has joined her and holds that deer in his arms, he knows how much this place meant to her. Max got his hand cart and loads the few belongings of that deer on it. All in her tub, with the herbs and needs that deer gathered through the years. It isn't much though and one travel is enough to bring this all to Veilwood Haven.
Max is curious, his friend Lizbeth told him already quite a few things, the bunny girl, the fox lady, that elven magician, the human mayor, the new hut... Lizbeth almost talked all along. Still she feels a bit sad about leaving that shed she rebuilt with Max. But the horse doesn't mind and is happy for his doe.
So they both arrive back at the haven, where some surprises attend them.

Lizbeth is astonished at the happy trio seemingly playing around, but sees quickly that Elenore is upset, a snake motionless on the ground, an elven in a tree and a fox at the trunk. Very confusing sight for the doe.
"What happened here? Did I miss something important?" She asks, worried about everyone.

Max follows that deer all the way to that ominous forest, pulling his cart and Lizbeth's things. He can't help but smile, he knows his beloved doe to be secure, finally amongst others. But little did he know what he finds at Veilwood. Many non-human beings gathered here, many of them fearing that big horse. He can see some shifting into animals, other curiously watching him. No, he's not human, is he accepted like anthropomorphic horse. The lumberjack puts the cart down, in front of a hut, very similar to the one he left not long ago, emptied of the doe's belongings. "I bet this is the one for you, Lizbeth, no?" He has to laugh, knowing his doe very well.
But Lizbeth's worries turn his attentions towards those present. And same as for Lizbeth a curious sight is offered to Max, a bunny girl crying with a dead snake, a fox attempting to reach for an elven in a tree, a human mayor trying vainly to ease the situation.
Max whispers to Lizbeth, "What is this place you got yourself into?" he asks, his eyes frowning.

She laughed. "I dont hate you. You protected her. Why would I hate you? Now get down here you idiot." She turned to see Lizbeth and her friend Max. "Oh hi! Nothing to worry about...Elenore wanted us to play hid and seek with her but she picked a bad hiding spot...she almost got bit by a snake but Kal saved her."

Elenore looked over at Lizbeth and Max "your back!" She ran over to Lizbeth and hugged her. "I was worried you weren't coming back .."

Jumps down from the tree still filled with fear " so your the dear lady that connected with little nori hi I'm the elven wolf mage known as kalvath leans in closer to the deer and whispers secretly in love with Sarabella but shh she doesn't know that yet" then he winks to try and get the point across that he either thinks she just heard him or he plans to tell her eventually
