The birds, who fly, may help you, wherever you may be,
So take their gifts gladly, for it may be helpful to you or me.
This was it! The birds were helping her get out of the forest! She followed them gladly.
The next morning, the woman provided her with fresh supplies and sent her on her way. It was a cold crisp morning and the birds sang in the trees. Raylen started on her way in the forest on an old overgrown path. Here and there, rabbits hopped into the bushes, and sometimes, she spotted a deer. After she had been traveling for about half an hour, a fawn ran out into the path in front of her. They both stopped at stared at each other. Then Raylen approached it.
''I-I'm a Kel not a Human. Your a human, but i think I'm a Kel...''
''A Kel!'' cried the old woman, ''Ha! But ok!'' The conversation ended, and the old woman led her into an old back room where she was to stay.
That night, Raylen lay in bed and wondered at the old woman. How could she not know what a Kel is? How-
She remember no more, for she had fallen asleep
''I think i need to go-'' she stammered.
''Alright,'' she answered, ''suit yourself. It's growing dark though.''
''Oh, then may I stay for the night?''
''Of course!''
''I have one question though,'' Raylen announced, still wondering at the woman and how she was so careless, ''what are...Humans?'' The old woman was taken aback.
