Emerald thinks about using his light spell to brighten the forest, but then decides not too. He feels like the little fire he generates will probably be a beacon for anything waiting in the shadows that might want to attack him. Instead he looks around for any indication of where he might be.

Emerald looks up into the treetops, hoping he can spot the sun. The canopy is too thick, but he gets another idea and finds a suitable tree to climb. Once atop it, he spies the roofs and tower of the village a little to his right. He was indeed going of course, it's a good thing he checked.

Emerald begins to walk the direction of the village, stopping a few more times to get his bearings. All the while, the forest remains it's silent, creepy self. He thinks he hears the crack of a twig or the rushing of a passing creature, but he thinks it might just be his nerves getting to him.

Taking a bit longer than Emerald would have liked, he finally gets to the outskirts of the village. It certainly is worn down. There isn't a house he can't see that isn't overgrown with plants, missing shingles, or incredibly dirty and he tower seems to be in an even worse state. It seems to have mostly crumbled apart. The forest hasn't reclaimed the ground yet, but the grass is thick with weeds and debris.

Worse yet, even here it's quiet.
