Topic: Chapter 1
She looked like a native of a foreign land and appeared anachronistic in a white nurse uniform from the humans outside the Forest. She had been her village’s expert herbal doctor but wanted to make it her profession to help those that dwelled in the village. Gala was one of the lucky few who had the privilege to access towns outside the outer limits of the forest. Of course, it was only for medical purposes and she had to dress her horns with hat or hood when engaging with ordinary humans. She was not one to flinch at the sight of blood and had no sentiment hesitating her to kill what dared to strike her, but she felt strife for members of her fellow kind who lost their loved ones or their own life. She shared a bond with Rosetta that sisters have and considered her as one.

"We should probably nurse her back to consciousness. It shouldn't take too long." Rosetta clutched the torso of the other girl and handed her over to Gala.

Usually it took 20 minutes tops for the wishy washy girl to return to the realm of consciousness. She laid across a burlap sofa, not moving a twitch.

"You should probably leave, Roddy." Rosetta pivoted around to stare at him solemnly.

"I probably should." He planted his hands behind his vermillion head and wandered towards the door.

Rosetta sighed and returned to staring at her strange friend.
