Vitani was out alone, finally having managed to sneak away from her mother and father, who were so happily grinding powders and mixing things together. Originally she had left because the fumes were getting to her head, but now she realized that maybe she had come for another reason. Technically she wasn't supposed to be out in the forests, but that obviously didn't appear to be stopping her.
She was currently leaning against one of the trees, sitting on the forest floor, moving the heel of her foot around in the soft dirt of the ground, liking the cool feel of the rich soil on her skin. She didn't know why she liked the forest--yeah, she had been there multiple times--but it sort of calmed her. It always felt like it was jazzed with energy, like the whole place was pulsing with life. It was rejuvenating, being within the cool shade of the large trees, walking around in the soft soil and feeling it mold around your feet.
In a way, she was here because she needed some alone time. Her parents, while laying off the nagging slightly, were still very annoying. They were obsessed with trying to teach her their trade--as if she wanted to be a doctor, wanted to make medicine. Like it was her 'duty', or whatever other word they had used to describe it. She didn't want to make medicine though... But it wasn't like she could tell her parents that, because then she'd have to reveal what she really wanted to do. Which would only cause the more worry and maybe even a bit of pain. She couldn't do that.
She huffed slightly, and her breath blew her bangs away from her face. Just then, she heard a rustling in the undergrowth. Maybe it was an animal, she thought. Vitani sure did love chasing animals--rabbit stew was really good, but maybe that was just because she made it herself sometimes. She stealthily rose to her feet, reaching for her knife, a little thing she always kept on her person. You never knew when you might need to fight something... or someone !
