The forest’s trees were so thick and patched in between that the leafs almost blocked out the sun, completely. There is still enough that anyone could see the path in front of them, but not everywhere in the forest was like this. Just the entrance and path leading into it, mostly. Getting past this would lead to a large clearing that allowed anyone to see the sky and feel the sun’s light shining down on them. This part was where Hilbert use to live, with his mother. Everything was just as Hilbert remembered it
He hadn’t been gone for a long time, but he was still feeling home sick enough to come see his mother’s grave and visit his old home. The wood hadn’t decayed yet. Good to know. Raiding his old home, he found that his baby crib was still in the storage. Oberon was written on it. He almost couldn’t believe she kept it.
Walking back outside, he made his way to the field of flowers, with a large tree in the center and a wooden tombstone in front of it. The name Faye was on it. The young boy took a leaf from the tree and sat in front of the grave. He began to play a song on the leaf by whistling.

Orion had finally found time to visit his mother. It had been too long since he had last seen her, and truthfully, he was putting it off for quite some time now. There were instances when he could have visited, but there were still questions to be asked, and information to look for. Everything he knew about his mother had been torn to shreds, what remained was something he could not even recognize.
"What?" the god slayer looked up, a song lifting his spirits as he kept walking towards its origin. The Prima matriarch's grave was the other way, but there was something about the song, uplifting in nature and spirit.
He found himself staring at a young boy, playing the song on a leaf that seemed to have been just laying around. he could not help but smile, before saying, "That was a beautiful song." It was moving. "Was that for..." he paused, before glancing at the tombstone just in front of the boy, "Ah, I see..." he trailed off.

The older man wasn’t the only person to be attracted to the song. Surrounding the clearing were a few forest animals like deer, squirrels, rabbits, birds, and other such animals. There were even some fairies flying around the large tree in the center, where Hilbert stood in front of. All of them were attracted to his song. The song from a fae that can be mistaken for a queen. A song that was in her memory.
”Hm?” The boy turned around, seeing a man standing before him. Weird, he didn’t remember anyone that lived around this forest. Did he happen to wander into here?
”Thanks. Momma was the one who showed it too me. Suppose to be the song of the forest and would put spirits at ease.” Hilbert patted his mother’s tombstone, explaining the origins of the leaf’s song to the stranger. ”Don’t worry about it. It’s life, after all.” It wouldn’t be easy to tell what the boy was feeling by the vibes he gave. Sure he was smiling, but was he really not worried or hurting?
”So! Do you normally take enthusiastic walks through the forest? Or is this dumb luck? Us meeting here?”

Orion smiled softly, "I suppose it is part of life." The kid was more understanding than most his age would. If Orion had lost his mother at a younger age, he would have definitely blamed everything and everyone around him. But this kid, he had a bit more head on him than most. Orion liked that.
He then looked up, "Oh. My mother is also buried somewhere here." He had chosen the place because it was peaceful, somewhere he could get away once in a while to visit his mother. Plus his mother always liked the forests and fields. Honestly, he could see why.
Orion held his hand in front of him for a shake, "Orion's the name." There was no harm in introducing himself, if the kid was someone who might kill him, he was sure he could handle it. Besides, it was great to make friends after all!
