I jump back startled by his sudden appearance. "Acererbus! You scared me!"
Acererbus sheathes his sword and crosses his arms, his eyes gleaming in the moonlight. "And you should be more aware of your surroundings, especially when walking through a dark forest."
No... I'm fine. She said as she rose to her feet.
