A man made his way through the trees as he listened to the sounds reverberating through the forest. Shrill crying. He curved around the trees that towered over, trying to find the source of the noise.
Just barely visible was a small wooden boat that had washed up onto the soil of a river, which went through the forest. The man's long, thin legs carried him to the object.
Leaning down, he spotted a bundle in a small, old blanket. Around it was a large puddle of water, which leaked in from a hole in the boat's walls. Reaching in, he wrapped his long arms around the moist object, lifting the sniffling bundle into the air. Getting a good look, he was relieved to find that it had been the source of all the racket in his forest home.
A baby looked up at him, their S/C skin glistening with water droplets from the leak in the boat. The man looked down at the baby softly before turning and walking back into the forest, leaving the old, small boat to lay forgotten next to the stream.
Silence once again filled the area as the baby calmed. The man looked down at them once again, chuckling when he seen that they were teething on their own hand. He reached down, removing the baby's hand only to have the infant grab onto his long, pale fingers.
The baby smiled, nuzzling his hand. The man sighed in amusement as he and the baby vanished into the dark of the forest.
