a sigh escaped full parted lips as she weaved through the trees, silent but for the soft crunching of dry leaves beneath her bare, cold feet, digging into the soil beneath and revelling of the power the earth beneath her provided. her left hand reached out to trail over the knarled, rough bark of the tree closest to her as she passed it, before she moved on, the fabric of her light dress swishing quietly in the deep stark silence of the forest.
she knew this place was forbidden, but it was the only place she enjoyed visiting; the only place she could truly feel freedom, and space and utter loneliness. just as she liked it. jez was good as slipping into the forbidden forest without being noticed, her flame-red auburn hair shimmered in the half light, caught by the streaks of soft light which filtered through the thick canopy overhead and dappled the forest floor, catching the highlights of her bright hair. lucky for jez, she saw her red hair as a gift, not a curse, prefering it from any other boring hair colour people tended to dye it these days. her bright hair was a part of her personality - who she was - she didn't want to change that, and loose what she was to herself.
reaching a tree most familiar to her - finding it easy now to negotiate the forest - and pausing. her ice blue eyes glanced up the length of the bark, catching onto the closest branch and planning her way up. with a sly, soft smile, jez bent her knees and pushed herself upwards, clutching onto the branch and hoisting herself onto it. deftly, she placed her feet on the thick branch and climbed up a little higher - just a little - lithely pausing a few metres up and moving to sit down carefully, crossing her legs at the ankles and letting them swing down. she wasn't that happy about heights, but she was comfortable here, and so for a few moments, she sat and enjoyed the peace...
