*Shaman of life* is the first thing you hear, barely above a whisper
*Is she broken?* a second voice asked
*Maybe shes dying?* a third suggested.
*Perhaps she is just young and her hair is not fully colored yet* the first one suggested
*Maybe it will turn more green when she has more experience* the third one agreed.
*Ive never met a young shaman before, that seems likely* the second one also agreed.
Your eyes gently flutter open, and there are three boys, around 15 in age, sitting around you. Upon seeing your eyes open, they jump back with a squawking noise and pull hoods over their heads, transforming into small songbirds and flying away swiftly.
You seem to be in a forest, where the tree bark is a pale green color and the leaves are large and a dark blue color. You seem to be in a small clearing in the woods, and silver and gold jewelry clinks on your wrists as you move your arms. You cant seem to recall anything about yourself, but you have no idea what a *Shaman* is, or who those three boys were. The trees, although dense, are easy enough for someone to fit past, and the branches seemed low enough to pull yourself onto.
Shaman.. of life.. how strange. What did that even mean? Arico sat up groggily, vision hazed as she collected her memories. None. Nothing sprung to mind. A strange feeling was in her chest, aching with worry. Someone wasn't here, she presumed. Something was missing, that she cared about dearly. She couldn't figure out what. Did those bird-men take something from here?
Bird-men. Something seemed strange. That wasn't right. Men who could turn into birds and squark. Something definitely wasn't right. How did those clothes fit when songbirds were so tiny? Would they sing to her? She would love to hear there beautiful melodies.
Arico slowly wobbled to her feet, dusting her blue dress off and touching her satchel. Where had she even got this from? And the beautiful silver and gold jewelry.. she would have to thank whoever gifted her it. She looked among the tree tops and sighed. Lost? Definitely lost. She then tried to figure out what direction the sun was so she could follow it, moving and peering around to try and see what it reflected off of.. if it even was there. If she could not tell, she would simple wander off in a random direction.

You try to look through the tree leaves, but quickly realize you cant find the sun. The sky seems to be a pale, dark green color, and the light seemed to be fading, meaning it must almost be sunset. As you cannot seem to figure out where the sun is, or if it even folllws some sort of familiar path, you start walking straight ahead through the forest, though the light seemed to be less and less as you proceeded, and the trees were becoming denser

Arico looked around carefully. It was getting darker, and the trees denser. She didn't particularly like this. Something told her the deeper she went, the more dangerous it became. A gut instinct. But, she was dead curious, what kind of creature could be lurking? it seemed like such an adventure.. all of this gave her a thrill as she continued onward, although still looking for less dense areas to follow and for birdsong.
(Don't worry, I didn't forget, I'm just trying to plan out the story and what I'll say next)
You reach up, unable to grasp the paper, then bend the stalk over so that you can grab the note. You unroll the piece of paper, and read what it says
My Dear Luna Lilybud
I know we haven't spoken in quite some time, but we all miss you back home. If you're wondering how I found you, I used some magic to get this to you- wherever you are
-Candra
You can deduce from this that your name is Luna Lilybud, and you must've had a close relationship with this "Chandra" person, and you must've left home some time ago

Luna blinks. "Uh...okay...." she looked around.

You listen closely while trudging onwards into the night. The forest was hauntingly silent besides your footsteps on the somewhat crunchy ground, not even wind shook the trees. The ambience seemed something straight out of a nightmare, and the silence was almost maddening.
You startled slightly as you hear a sweet sound in the distance, a little bit to your right and far up ahead. The sound didnt sound like an animal, but rather it sounds as if someone is playing music on an instrument similar to a flute.

You look around, putting the note in your pocket. You find yourself fully surrounded by the tall grass on all sides, and the stalks are much too tall to see over. Whichever way you went, you would be traveling blindly , and you had no idea where you would be going or how far the grasslands expanded.

"Fun." Luna muttered. She started walking-the grass couldn't go forever, right?
