The woodland area creates a gentle, peaceful feel as one walks along past the leafy fronds and gently shifting foliage.  The path is firm and wide, having been traversed by many feet, but not so wide as to allow a merchant's cart to pass through.  A bird's cry sounds in the distance, followed by a ruffle of feathers, and then silence.  The beauty of the forest hides the struggle of nature that lies within...

I am a deer. I live in a beautiful forest and am usually left alone. Sometimes the king and his friends try and hunt me with big packs of dogs. I don't like being chased.
yum It was moldy anyway. But I'm kind of wondering what deer would taste like. hey now Fear not I'm hungry but these are the kings lands and I would rather keep my neck out of the noose. Do you know where I can find some berries or other food? There is an abundance off the the west about a half mile. you could follow me.  Are these woods safe? What do you think that happened to that bird? there are predators as everywhere including humans like yourself. But a half mile isn't very deep. Well let's get on with it then. My belly is grumbling and that bird going silent is giving me the creeps.
