Clammy *open*

[Eclipse]

A tall slim figure walked in sandeled feet through an area of thick forest where a bridge was gradually drawing nearer. The figure had extremly long sleek black hair that reached the mid of his calf's on his legs. It was tied back in a silver round hair piece with long strands left free to fall around his slim pale face where it shaped itself to give his features more of a youthful and wise look. The hair was indeed sticking a little to his face...the thick humidity of the forest was making this youkai feel a little sweaty and sticky. Not the best thing to put someone in a very good mood.

Red, calm eyes scanned the area infront of him and the figure's plain expression didn't change once. This youkai had power limiters, a couple of long dangeled gold earrings which ended with half-moon cresents which rested half-way down his slim neck. They blew lightly in a small amount of grateful wind as he walked along and made his hair look like a long wave of darkness. This youkai was named Eclipse. He was infact calm, thoughtful and very dangerous if came across on the wrong terms. His appearence was elegent, cool and charming. Long sleek black hair, pale slim features, robed clothing showing a long triangle of bare,smooth chest..and simpily sandelled feet. He wasn't set out to do anything which a passer-by might think...but was infact just having a thoughtful stroll. Just something to do to keep his mind off other things.

He stepped out of the thick forest and onto the first wooden strip of bridge. His eyes looked at the rackety bridge...he wasn't scared in anyway..he was at this moment wondering whether it was safe to cross and not end up falling to the bottom of the seemingly never ending cliff. His arms crossed over lightly by the bottom of his waist and he pondered over the safety...he would cross in a moment. He wasn't a fool to throw away his life like that.

Koru sat behind a tree across the bridge the Figure was crossing. He was'nt sure what the being was, but he Did'nt care too much, he was too lost in the Question he finds asking himself each night... "The sun gives the light to the moon, but does it expect the moon to repay it? I can only wonder..." He thought as he reached for a small flute like Instrument. He leaned back on the tree, starting to play a simple tune. His brown eyes seemly going blank as he finished the song. Koru sighs, at another night spent in this Damned forest.

A girl wandered by holding a bucket of laundry and finding herself feeling a little silly, today was no day to be washing clothes. The mist and clammy air was enough to dampen the clothes without water at all. She sniffed, feeling strange in the humid air and continued toward the river, when she heard the sound of a flute. Following the sound she found herself looking upon it's owner and stood to watch and listen, just hidden from sight. He was clearly youkai, she could tell, and he would surely be able to tell the same for her. Clutching her bucket and sensing there was yet another in their midst.

[koru]

Finishes his song, then slowly putting his flute into a small pouch on his waist. He then yawns sleepily, "A nap would be nice...". He swings from the tree landing on the ground, then dizzily stumbles before heading toward the River, Unaware of anyone Around, Other than the Animals, of course.
