"Time it takes going back up, which is slower than going down. Then I ate something, then I found you."

And the rest is history. Maybe she doesn't operate in things like hours and minutes, but events, strung together like beads on a string. Or she doesn't want to admit how long it's been in actual quantifiable words. Who knows, it's an elven mystery.

As it happens, Sabine is as light on her feet as any stereotype about elves might inform. Her clothing isn't particularly on par with even the freelance rogues, her boots worn and her trousers made of wool and canvas, and the only armor she wears is the leather on her feet, the lambskin fitting her hands. More like a servant used to rough work than an adventurer, but maybe she makes up for it with enthusiasm. The last few feet of descent are done in wild lopes, landing firm on steadier ground.

She seems to choose a direction, headed to a specific tree that stands out from the rest. "He'd been nibbling on the moss, last I saw him," she says, gloved fingertips touching where soft horsey muzzle had worked it over with scarier teeth.
