"Not... exactly. It's shared by all the creatures of the forest."
Devon stalked off towards an inconspicuous tower of rocks.
"Up here."

Starmane looked around, impressed by the tower of rocks.
"Wow, it looks like a fortress."
She went closer to him, shyly holding his hand for support the last bit.

Devon noticed the slight pressure on his hand but did not say anything. He led her through a narrow crevice in the mountain, a crevice which gradually opened up into a vast, cavernous space.
"We're here."

Starmane looked at the cave in front of him with an impressed smile.
"Wow, this is great. Is it hard for the orcs to find us here?"
She felt grateful he hadn't tossed her down the hill and back to the orcs when she took his hand.

Devon paused, tilting his head to one side.
"Well, they might trail our scent here, but they can't fit through the gap in the wall. And if they somehow do manage to get in, there's a concealed exit through here--" he gestured to a dark chamber on their right.
"We should be safe."

Starmane looked around. She was grateful that she didn't have to sleep outside in the forest, where the orcs could find her. When Devon said they were safe, she gave him a trembling smile. She was glad he had followed her here.
She looked up at him with glittering eyes.
"I have packed a lot of food with me for this trip. Way more than I had to. Are you hungry?"

"Famished, I should say," he grinned. "Running for our very lives and you had the time to bring along food? I'm impressed, Miss Starmane."

Starmane laughed. Her laughter sounded like a brook in the spring, when the snow is melting by sunlight, and the water starts flowing over stones on it's way.
She found the food she was carrying in a sack over her shoulder, and placed it on a flat rock. There were lembas, bread, cheese, butter, ham, pickles and a lot of other food sorts. And as for drink there were fresh orange juice, apple juice, and cold spring water. She had packed to be gone for a long time.
"I don't know what you prefer, Mister Devon. Please help yourself to some food and drink. As you can see for yourself, there are far more food here than I manage to eat on my own."

"All right, then."
He indiscriminately chose a leg of ham, which he began to gnaw upon.

Starmane made herself a nice sandwich, consisting of lembas, butter and cheese. She added some fruit on top of it to give it a fruity flavor. She looked over at Devon and asked shyly.
"Do you want something to drink?"

Devon shook his head, hastily stripping away the meat.
"It's fine," he muttered through his food.

Starmane looked over at him, for the first time feeling compassion with him. He seemed like he hadn't eaten in a long time. She smiled gently and discreetly pushed some more food closer to him.
"I hope you enjoy your food."
She smiled shyly before helping herself to some juice.

"Thank you. I hope you enjoy yours--" he gestured to her sandwich, "--too."
He wolfed down the remaining portion of the ham in his hand and gazed over at Starmane.
"Such a change in manners."

Starmane had just finished her sandwich. She elegantly wiped off her mouth on a napkin and looked over at Devon with her green eyes glittering. She blushed when she noticed his stare, and her heart skipped a beat.
"What do you mean?"

"Do you not recall at all your rather cold and impolite manner towards me at the start of our acquaintance?" he asked, slightly taken aback. "I mean, what happened to that girl?"
