Saelin walked under the morning sun a few hours before noon. The sun was above her head, and fallen leaves were scattered all over the ground in so vast a number that they blotted it out.

Its beauty matched with her hair that seemed to get whiter with each passing day, giving her a conspicuous look. Sethlzaar had no doubt it had been given to her by one of the women from the tribe as he watched her from the fallen tree he sat upon. She stopped when she got to him.
