Upon hearing the sudden and sprightly voice break her peace, Tira jolted and sprung from her position to turn and face the grinning miqo'te now at her level. "Whew... Did I doze off? You gave me a fright!" Hand to chest as she laughed it off with her relief.
Inspecting his attire for a moment she sniffed the air around her then cast her gaze back to the miqo'te. "What you got there? Breakfast? For me?" she teased. Her head tilted as she began to carefully crawl across the seemingly stable bough toward him to get a closer look.
As she leant her hand on a side branch for support it had given way just seconds to the grasp causing her to twist and fall down the side of the tree.
"Wuaagh!" A short, sharp squeal echoed upward followed by snapping, crunching and the sounds of disturbed leaves.
Nearby birds flocked from their nests and other wildlife scurried to their hidden sanctuaries. "I'm okay!" she yelled softly with a hint of injury. Now hanging upside down from a branch and her foot entangled within knots of vine.
