The Guardian followed the yelling guy deepest in the forest, he showed her the way where she can go to fight the elf. Doubtful about what she was about to do, the knight was following the way. Just before meeting the elf, she could see some happy people wandering in the wood.

-This beautiful forest remains peaceful thanks to the elf that guards it!

Even a goblin was standing here

-Human... No go more...

Two others were discussing.

-Kanterbury forest is designated as an environmentally protected area.

-And it will continue to be protected thanks to the elf.

Starting to feel a bit of remorse the knight continues until she can see an elf standing in the middle of the way. The Guardian take out her sword and approach her.

-Who are you? Humans aren't allowed in here!

Honest, the knight responds without looking her in the eye.

-I came to kick you out.

-You leave me no choice but to make you regret coming here!

She suddenly takes out her bow and shoot an arrow at her, the knight has just the time to dodge it. She steps back, avoiding the elf's other projectiles. Avoiding being pierced she tries as best she can to get closer, having to use all her skill to avoid being hit by her opponent's deadly strokes, the elf doesn't give up ground determined to chase the Guardian away from here. Taking advantage of the moment when she takes an arrow, she leaps forward, sending her bow flying through the air, bringing her blade close to her neck, she stops, breathless. The elf opens her mouth saying what she thinks is her last sentences.

-I hate humans... they always destroy Mother Nature... However, since you've won, my fate is up to you.

She closes her eyes, retaining her breath, and... nothing, nothing happens. She dares to open one eye and she can see the knight have put away her sword. Saying nothing for a few second, she finally assembles the courage to ask.

-Why did you spare me? My opinion of you hasn't changed. Although if you want to prove your goodness, please remove the poacher from this forest.

The Guardian nod and start to run with a happy smile to speak to the poacher. As soon as he sees her the man yell.

-Hey, come here! Did you get rid of that elf?

The knight shakes her head and ask him to go instead.

-What? Leave the forest? Are you kidding me? I can't go home empty-handed.

The knight refuse to give him anything.

-Two can play that game, you're going to regret this!

He tries to shoot with his pistol, but he can't do a movement that the knight put her sword against his body. He shakes in fear, his eyes fixating the sword.

-Ugh... please spare me...

A girl with blonde her wearing a little greed hat come, the knight slowly takes back her sword.

-La-la-la...

She sees him standing straight as a post in front of the knight.

-What happened?

She takes his sleeve to pull him along.

-Did you hear? There's a rumor of a legendary frozen hawk in Mt. Shivering! Let's go!

He faints after having the fright of his life.

-Are you seriously napping? You're so useless...

She carries him further into the forest out of the sight of the knight who anyway just wanted him to leave. She goes straight at the elf to tell her that the poacher finally left the forest alone.

-Did you really kick the poacher out?

The elf thinks a moment a little ashamed of herself.

-I'm sorry human... I was wrong about you. Please forgive my rude behavior. Take this as a token of my gratitude.

She hands her a beautiful bow, the same as her. The knight surprised take it without knowing what to say. She then thanks her and promise to help her anytime she needs it before resuming her way in quest of the little Princess.
