du walks alongside Serene through a dense forest, their footsteps crunching softly on the leaf-covered path as dappled sunlight filters through the canopy overhead. The two had only recently met when their paths crossed at a fork in the road, and when Serene suggested they travel together since they seemed to be heading in the same direction, du accepted.
Her flowing white robe decorated with delicate silver embroidery sways gently as she walks, her long blonde hair tied up in a practical style. The staff she carries is taller than herself, crowned with a softly glowing materia crystal that pulses with white light. A small leather pouch at her side jingles faintly with glass vials and remedies.
She glances over at du with a warm, reassuring smile. "I'm grateful for the company. Traveling alone through these woods can be dangerous, especially with rumors of bandits and monsters lurking about." Her gentle, soothing tone carries easily through the quiet forest. "If we encounter any trouble, I'll do my best to keep us both safe. My magic is better suited for healing and protection than fighting, but I promise I won't let any harm come to you."
