  A figure ran up the steps and into the temple. They wore a three quarter mottled green woollen cloak with the hood over their face to hide in. They was quite short in stature standing only about 5"4' or 5"5'. Across their back was slung a quiver half full of arrows rattling loosely in the quiver as they ran. These were clearly for the recurve bow they held in their hand. This was an elegant bow which had limbs which curved outwards and then met together in the centre, curving inwards to their meeting point. Their feet were wrapped in hide boots and their chest and legs were clad in leather armour, providing them with some protection from any harm that might come their way. As they jumped up the final two steps their hood fell down revealing dark shoulder length hair, deep hazel eyes almost black from the intensity of the pigmentation of the eyes. The young woman had a fierce glare on her face, clearly she was on a mission that was of the upmost importance to her. She strode into the temple with an air of confidence. "I'm here about the quest she yelled," as she entered the temple. The head priest of the temple came out to greet her and informed her that a group of people had already gone to do the job. "Damn, I needed to get they job, he was meant to be doing it after all." Hearing her frustration the head priest told her where they had gone and how to get there. "They'll already be there huh, I'd better travel quick then.". Thanking the priest she sped off out of the temple. In her frustration she reached back behind her and drew and arrow, shooting it at a tree with deadly accuracy. The arrow was fletched with a black swan feather on the end and the head of the arrow on the opposite side was a steel broadhead which had a mottled green tint to it, matching her cloak. Ignoring the road she ran in to the forest, opting for a faster route, on her way to Andolin.
