"It's best to stay hidden and keep a low profile in the forest," Eldrin explained. "This is the time when the guardian gives its blessing.

"It's in our best interest to avoid the fights. I prefer letting others kill each other instead of getting my own hands dirty." Eldrin was very straightforward with his opinion.
Elira and Lunaria instantly gave him a look but neither said anything. Liam, on the other hand, simply nodded, agreeing with the elf. He usually followed the same method so he did not have any problem with it.
