Haunted Wisp

She was halted by a voice. A feminine chime on the wind carried to her slender ear. She turned to see another woman of ebon, concerned eyes focused on her. The furs along her back rose with apprehension at the intense study and she took a tentative step back. It was a moment before she answered, her voice a little strained, "Yes... I'm fine." Who was this woman to ask, anyways? Her eyes narrowed as she studied the stranger. There was a delicate bundle of herbs below her jaw; set carefully upon the earth and they attracted her interest. She remained where she was; not close, untouchable... A comfortable distance away. But curiousity still got the better of her and she sniffed the air, hoping to catch a scent of the other. Where did she come from? What was in her bundle? Her ears remained flattened and her demeanor shy; but she replied a little gentler, "I'm Valencia, who are you?" It was the best she could do to be kind, but she was on edge. Strangers, others, made her nervous. The whole idea of a conversation was foreign to her but she tried. It was better than walking alone, anyways.
