----The Village----

Two Days Later

"Your father..left for the market on a Tuesday at a quarter past nine in the morning..."- Alice Hunt

All was quiet today in the village of Convington, but it was still an early morning, so people where barely awake. A young Lucius Hunt sat on a rug, playing with some balls of wool, getting all tangled up, his mother walked downstairs followed by his Father, Angus.

Alice picked up Lucius, who was covered in stringy yellow wool. "Say goodbye to your father, he is going to the markets, do not fear for he will be back soon to play games with you."Alice told her son.

Lucius looked at her, then at Angus, he blinked a couple of times and then waved to his father, smiling lightly

. Angus returned the smile to his son "Yes Lucius i will be back soon, and i shall make haste in order to play games with you when i shall return." He told Lucius, then ruffled his sons dark, fuzzy hair.

Lucius smiled again, and waved "Bye bye daddy!" he said.

Alice set Lucius back down on the rug, leaving him to play with the yellow wool. She then turned to face her husband "Be carefull out there, it seems dangerous, and like to said make haste across the forest."She instructed, then kissed her husband on the cheek.

Angus only grinned "Don't worry, nothing will stop me, i'll be fine" he said, trying to set Alice's mind at ease.

Alice nodded again and opened the front door, and walked outside, breathing in the fresh air.

Angus looked at his son one more time, happy that he was keeping himself amused and out of trouble "I guess I ought to get going" He said.

Alice nodded "I will see you this evening"Alice said.

Angus nodded his head once more "Don't worry about me, i'll be safe" he assured "And tell Lucius to look out for my return" he added, before finaly heading off into the woods.

Alice let out a sigh, but still worried if he would be alright out there alone. She shook her head, casting such thoughts aside and walked back into her home, closing the door.
