Trees rushed past Calene as she ran through the forest. The elf was not running from anyone, or even to anywhere, she was just running. The wind kicked up her hair, making it dance inthe wind, and she spun around and dodged branches with a grace only an elf could muster. She let out a yell of exhilaration as she leapt into the air, launching off of a log, over a large stream. The woman hadn't a care in the world, she had just finished her training into being a warrior, and all she had to do now was make her own bow.
The woman wanted to use some exotic wood for the spine of her bow, so she had a satchel with her that held a little food, and a dagger in her belt for hunting. In her bag was also the finest bowstring in her village, awarded to her for completing her training at the top of her class. Caleneslowed to a stop as she came to a river, kneeling down and taking a sip of it's cold, refreshing water. the elf splashed a little in her face before standing and wading through the water to get to the other side before braking out into a run again.
It was almost an hour before the elf came to a stop again, noticing a steep-sloped pit in the middle of the forest. she took a few steps toward it before realizing that the edges could be brittle, and climbing a nearby tree; a branch hanging over the pit. The elvish woman tested the branch before stepping out onto it and looked down into the pit; a brilliant blue substance at the bottom. "It can't be..." She whispered to herself. She had heard legends of the Melma Vivente, but she had never thought it was true. She suspected it was just told by the elders in her village to keep the young ones from straying to far. The elf rummaged through her bag and took out a small apple and dropped it down into the pit; the vibrant red of the fruit making it easy to see.
The apple hit the gel with a bloop being swallowed up without so much as a splash, simply disappearing. "Huh..." Calene muttered, turning to get off of her branch and climb down. The woman's satchel caught on a twig as she turned. "Oh, shit." She thought, the snag making her lose her balance. The elf fell down, towards the pit and, at the last second, grabbed a branch. "Oh thank the gods" she whispered, beginning to pull herself up when she heard a crack. "Fuck!" she shouted, the branch breaking as she fell fifteen feet into the pit. The gel slowed her fall, and thankfully it was not very deep, allowing her to stand up and wipe her face clean. "Eugh." she muttered, the slime only up to her knees, but it left her completely covered.
