Terent nodded, "M'kay! I'll inform him of your aid! I'm sure he'll be thrilled to know you've helped a teacher!" he nodded, odd to believe, huh- that an elf with blue green hair who stood at only around five feet tall was a teacher. Perhaps he was lying about it? Terent hummed a tune to himself, his demeanor rather cheerfull and he seemed to almost skip before he stopped, wondering if the person whom he hadn't figured the name of yet was going to go further towards the Village, or if he was going to leave... Terent was rather fond of the idea of leaving, "Th'name's Terent, by the way... and this here is Smitty, in case you haven't noticed." He smiled with a nod.

Flashback: Valdoren:*hits the target dead on his first try* Ronove: You have a lot of talent, even though on that bow it is hard to miss. Valdoren: *Eyes are glowing in joy and amazement as the small locks of auburn red hair sway in the warm summer breeze.* Really?! 00 Ronove: Really. Valdoren: WaHOO!!!!! *jumps up and down for a minute* *picks up another arrow and tries again at a tree pretty far away from the tower, shooting down an apple* Ronove: *watches with that fatherly pride* Valdoren: Did you see that one, Ronove?! That was soo cool! *points to the apple that fell down onto the ground* Ronove: I did see that. Practice makes perfect, but you could arch a spot out of the sun. end
Valdoren nodded respectfully to Terent. "Nice to meet you. I'm Valdoren. Though I should mention that Lee is a woman- not a man, Terent." A teacher? Hm, he could be lying, though it was pretty low on the meter he would be. His brown eyes reflected the sun that came out and the boy sighed.

"Using masculine terms for either gender is an art the military has perfected, I guess I'm not there yet, eh?" He laughed, a smile on his face and he heald his hands up at about head level and waved his fingers like some kind of mocking cheerleader 'spirit fingers' and he heald the pose for a few moments.
Smitty looked rather bored at this moment in time and he yawned, flitting his way to the top of Valdoren's head and set himself down for a nice relaxing nap.
"So then, which way are ye headed?" He asked, dropping the whole 'spirit fingers' thing and a rather bored expression was now heald on his face, a nice trail of rope wrapped around his ankle.

"I'm headed to take that quest that a few of the people in school have been talking about all week, and who knows how much longer before that... But besides that in itself, I'm looking to get started on it all- and since I lost my direction." Val explained, readying himself on what's to come no matter what it is. His look was showing that mental, emotional and physical state of mind.

"Quest? What kind of... quest? If you're looking for shrooms- I can't help you! I-HAVE-NO-CLUE-WHERE-HALLUCENAGEN-SHROOMS-ARE!" he said, looking around for a few moments suspiciously. "Okay, but seriously... what is it that you want?" He asked, raising an eyebrow, "What kinda crazy quest did you get yourself into? Is there any bloodshed involved?"

"By the way you're acting, Terent- you're a drug addict, and on the substabce in which you refer to. Anyhow, I'm unsure if there's bloodshed; but then again, I'm not sure of the details within the quest's contents ither. The students talked about it so much that I figured I'd give it a try. Honestly, I only know that the Tribal Leader is the one who tells you what you need to do, hence why I'm heading there." Valdoren's voice was calm and steady, not nervous by the not-so-new face of Terent anylonger, as if he was; but that's beside the point. Valdoren was confused. New school, new people to meet, new places to explore.....everything was so new and fresh, but how much 'new' can he handle in such short a time?

"So ye don' exactly know what exactly yer going to do? Doesn't sound wise to instantly just go and have a quest you don't know everything about... just like how you never voulinteer for random things that you know nothing about, lest you get recruited into clean the privvys with your tongue, that was unpleasant..." he shook his head with a shudder, obviously they weren't fond memories.

"I suppose you can say that." Val replied to Terent. "You said you knew where the tent is, would it be any trouble if you led me there? I could see if they'll let you go so you can get to your classroom so you can teach." Val's proposal was a little premature, because he couldn't garuntee that it would work out in their favor; but he said he would do it, and so he'd keep his word. That is, if Terent agreed.

"Gettin' to a classroom isn't the biggest priority at this moment, what? You think I live there or somethin'?" He asked with a laugh as he looked to his right for a few moments, "Aaaaaand... I think we'd be headin' in that direction..." he thought aloud finally before he valiantly placed a firm foot foreward and headed on his way to see if he was right that the village would be this way... because honestly- he had no clue anymore.

Valdoren realized that as much as a mini bookworm he was [especially compared to Ronove], not everyone had the joys he did. He admitted in thought that he could have carelessly took it upon himself to assume such. He followed Terent and was sucked into his thoughts, pondering of this matter and that. Maybe it'd end sooner or later.

Terent stepped over a log and behold, he managed to fall a good four feet into a small creek. The water went up to about his ankles and he let out a slight sigh as the mud and clay managed to make it's way into his shoes, "Hmm... okay then, there's a wee drop ye might want to be lookin' out for." he cautioned, his facial expression wasn't exceedingly happy, since, of course... only about his shoulders and up were above the edge and getting out would be normally easy for most, who knew about Terent.
Obviously the short elf wasn't much of a woodsman.
(Creek based off of the one in my back woods, lol)

Valdoren found it amusing in some small fraction of his mind, but he dismissed it. "I can see that," he replied with that 'WOOOOOWWW' look on his face and giving a soft chuckle. With a ripcord sound, Valdoren's arrow was tightly embedded into a tree trunk. The boy began skid down the drop from the side where land was just steep enough to make you fall forward if you didn't have something to hang onto. The seventeen year old made it seem so easy, sliding down like that. He was in the woods often enough to be an outdoors men. But then again, when you travel through the Appalachian mountains worth of woods for three months, only going in circles, you begin to realize how to make sure you don't hurt yourself.
[[he fell in a LOT of holes and stuff. Val: HEY! it wasn't MY FAULT they were hidden underneath SNOW!!!! Yes, you keep saying that dear, even though it was spring time... ^_^]]
Val took a thick piece of a tree branch that was on the pine needled ground with his empty hand and put it near Terent's body, hoping he'd be able to reach it. "Here."

Terent grabbed hold of the branch and nodded in thanks to Valdoren, and then he looked around for a few moments, he kinda wished he had more shrooms... yeah- more shrooms would be lovely... he really wanted some shrooms right now... shrooooooooooooommms.... His pupils got really small, he wasn't as dependant on the drug as many people were, but it was still an addiction and by this point he was itching for some more. It kinda just struck him and as he began ambling out of his hole and back up to the forest floor and he shook his head, trying to think of where there was a good supply of shrooms, his hands quavering slightly. He had no more in his bag and dammit, these were the hard moments in his life.

Valdoren got onto the side as well, looking at Terent he knew something was up- what was the question. "Are you okay?" he asked in a confused and concerned manner. The boy watched the teacher's eyes shrink and start to shake, "You look sick..." "Drugs... the shaking, the small outburst a while ago.....its possible thats the problem. But how bad is it?" he thought to himself watching the elf go pale.

Terent shook his head, a light sweat forming on his brow, "No... I'm f-fine..." he knew of course he obviously wasn't and it was amazing how fast you decline when you need more shrooms. He closed his eyes for a few moments, "I just need to find myself a few... s-some more shrooms...." He clenched his fists and loosened them, eyes wide as he looked towards Valdoren, a thought entered his head that perhaps he had some shrooms, his clammy hands reached foreward, pleading for some shrooms.
