After leaving the hall Xara along with Fian had left the World Tree and were leading on to an entirely different path.
It went around the World Tree and through the mildly dense forest. The path she was walking on was made with with slabs of cobblestone and had borders of mud running alongside it. There were trees on either side of the path and lampposts that were currently turned off due to daytime.
As they went along the elves passing by them looked at Xara with amazement and surprise. After all, she didn't have those long pointed ears and everyone knew that a human hostage had been captured. It was a no-brainer to conclude that Xara was that human.
The two of them had been walking silently, no one saying a word. At first, it didn't affect Xara that much as she was busy gazing at the scenery around her but now she was starting to grow curious. After all, everything that happened back there in the hall had more or less completely gone over her head.
