A left turn and then a right before coming to a fork in the path. Hadama went right again and listened to the rustling of leaves that might have been a breeze, or the squirrels that scampered through the hedges, or something even less benign. There was no obvious threat, however, and he continued onwards at his slow and steady pace, dignified even on the hunt.
Perhaps it was no surprise, then, when he followed a stretch of the maze without much bending, walking the straight and narrow path with calm purpose. The mist prevented him from seeing very far ahead, and so it was a bit of a surprise when the form of a young woman appeared out of it. He paused, contemplating the chance that she was an illusion or a trick—
But he resumed his soft-footed approach until he reached the fork in the path. She stood in an opening leading to another path to his right. Straight ahead of him the path forked yet again but first he stopped a short distance from the stranger and inclined his head in quiet greeting. ”Good afternoon,” he rumbled courteously. ”Are you also hunting the Void creatures in this place?”
