The forest was quiet, they did not see many animals, but once in awhile an elf would stop and look about the road sides, having obviously seen something. It was a huge forest, but the trees seemed to be bunched together, making the forest feel stuffy. He looked up at the branches that had grown up above the path, blocking much sun light from reaching the tiny strip of dirt that crossed the large forest.
He wiped his forhead with his hand, and watched the other members of the group. They all seemed to be consentrating on the road, determined to finally reach the end of the giant forest. The elves eispecially, their eyes darting about the forest, waiting. They new they were not alone, or more so felt it. It was a quiet forest, but they could feel themselves being watched, by animals...and perhaps something else.
He shook his head and kept walking down the straight and narrow path, wishing to leave the forest behind.
