A quiet word in Sindarin was all that it took to bring her horse's pace up from his slow gait.

The beast snorted loudly, showing his dislike for the surrounding area. Despite them keeping to the trail, the trees were far to close for his liking and the forest floor was far too cluttered with weeds and underbrush and snow. It wasn't the first time she had brought him into this environment, and his annoyance was obvious.

Quite plainly, she ignored the animal. She too felt discomfort at the low temperatures, even if it was mildest discomfort. But then her journey was necessary, and any discomfort would be tolerated. In any case she had her heavy cloak around her shoulders, and that was enought to fight of any cold that would even begin to nip at her skin.

Lothlorien was now lost to her eyes. Very few remained, and those that did were already falling victim to the sea calling. She had no place there anymore which is why she made the choice to travel, to find a place where she could be of use, or at least a place where her restless kin could not be found. She would be pleased to retire into the forest alone until the sea called her own name, but she was beginning to feel a different kind of restlessness than those who still dwelled in Lothlorien. Inside her was a gnawing feeling, dull and dark. It had even begun to seep into the golden wood. She look about the desolate trail she traveled upon and knew she could feel it here too, however faint the feeling was.

She dwelled on the thought for only a moment before the sight of the trail disappearing into the trees ahead of her brought her mind back to her journey. She was a wanderer now in the simplest sense. Her travels had begun before she'd chosen a destination. She was a now a wanderer in the trees, to be led to where ever the path she was on would take her.
