Yeosang



They were out in the Magical Forest two days after the trio had left.

It was very sunny, almost no clouds in sight which made the day even better. Though something weird was always following them. The snow on the ground. It was very questionable, in the middle of spring season, why would there be snow?

Wooyoung believes it's the winter spirits coming after him after breaking in the mountains and finding Seonghwa. Though nothing bad had happened since. Yeosang thinks otherwise yet he can't explain what was going on.

As usual, Wooyoung and Jongho were feeding and checking up on the dragons while Yeosang was picking out fresh fruits and berries from trees and bushes he could find.

The dragon's cave wasn't that far from where he was and with his basket full of goods, he wasn't planning on walking in the forest any further.

Wooyoung nearby was singing a melody with Jongho dramatically acting out random things he could think of. Yeosang was sitting with his legs crossed on the grass ground, picking out raspberries from the large bush infront of him.

"Do you think they found Hongjoong?" Wooyoung asked, giving out another piece of meat to the green forest dragon.

"I'm sure they did, though I am not certain that they would make it out alive." Jongho calmly responded.

"How are you so calm about this?"

"Trust me, I'm not."

Yeosang quietly listened to their conversation, a small brown butterfly landing on his hand and staying there as he cautiously continued to pick out berries. "They'll escape, I trust San's guts."

"They can manage, Mingi always has a plan." Jongho added.

Wooyoung just smiled which didn't reach his eyes, a sigh escaping his lips as he took a seat ontop of the old tree log that was just sitting there with vines growing all over it.

The bushes infront of Yeosang suddenly rustled as a random wild fox peeked his head over it, startling Yeosang for a moment.

"Oh my." Yeosang blurted out, "A fox?"

The fox tilted his head, staring at Yeosang with those big eyes.

"Are you hungry? Do you want some berries?" Yeosang kindly held out his hand which was full of berries, hoping thr fox would take some for himself.

A proud laugh left his lips when the fox actually started to eat the berries he picked out. He didn't mind feeding wild animals, as long as they don't attack him or feel threatened by him then everything was fine. Yeosang also loved the animals, as an elf himself, it is his duty to protect them at all cost.

The fox stopped halfway, Yeosang thought it wasn't hungry anymore but oh god how wrong he was.

Instead, the fox snatched the basket full of berries and fruits and ran off deeper in the forest.
