Zian sighed as he followed the river that flowed through the forest. He liked to listen to the water flowing. It calmed him. His mind had been restless lately. He needed somebody else to talk to. He had spent too much time on his own. While solitude was nice at times, there was still the need to interact with others. He didn't want to become a recluse.
So he had set out with no particular destination in mind, hoping that he might happen to stumble across somebody that wouldn't mind having a nice conversation with him.
