Are
A day of two of rest was all he really needed, all he'd ever really allow himself to have. Head was still a bit foggy. The days turning into a blur and mixing what was before with what came after, the woods though, they where all the same. Are, deep in thought pondering how it actually fit together as he with snares and stick in hand walked his usual path.
Stars came and went before his eyes. Some things hadn't really had the time to sort itself out since that day at the spire, both memories and possibly more bodily matters, as evident by his eyes showering his vision with another bout of sparks and lines.
He knew the woods, as well as someone reliant on it for a few weeks would at least, but this was not it. What he saw around him as he looked up wasn't it. Mesmerized by the rhythmic bounce of the axe against his thigh and the soothing creaking of his pack he could've wandered long before realizing. Did he even know north from south anymore.
As it set in he sighed and rubbed his face. He sighed again and looked to the sky, as long as the sun hadn't changed too too much he had been going north instead of east. A third sigh and a swig from the water skin cleared away the worst splotches of color and light, as if the tepid water somehow washed his eyes and popped them back in place again.
The thought had Are chuckle as he on heavy feet pushed through another patch of small trees, hoping to find his way back to the path.
