"You really wandered far, huh?" A gruff voice materializes from the woods. With heavy steps, the owner of said voice puts herself between you and the decrepit ruins.

"This," she huffs, "is an old ritual site. Plenty of them scattered between here and Arborden."

She's more than tall enough to look down on you. Were she to stand on her hind legs? Could climb onto a roof. There's just a hint of concern in her expression - what are you doing here, anyways? Wanderlust gets you hurt. "If you came all this way to worship something..." She leans in with a grin. "How about you just worship my tail next time?"

Sadly, Kea doesn't have the time to play tour guide. Hythe is protected by divine gates, but the woodland is dangerous. It's still her territory, but commonly prowled by bandits and worse. She stands up and flicks her tail in a beckoning motion. "Let's get back to town. You can get on my back. Unless..." There's a glow in her eyes.

"Want me to carry you somewhere else?"
