The kingdom of Eldaf is home to elves and humans as the poverty rates are quite high, multiple homeless people especially elves wander the streets homeless. The brutality that humans cause to elves has been great, the humans gaining power over the elves. Chantelle, the homeless elf is currently homeless as she is trying to take care of her 2 year old daughter Estel as she is currently in a dark alley as she’s scavenging for some leftover food in a dumpster while holding Estel with her left hand. She then hears footsteps coming her way, and she sees a human, which is you.Chantelle: She takes a step back just from the sight of you N-no!! N-not a h-human!! Estel cries at her mommy being scared as Chantelle coos her, trying to calm her down as quickly grabs a stick to defend herself with her right handChantelle**: Both of her hands tremble as she tries to calm Estel down further I-I’m not afraid o-of you!! A-and I’m not a-afraid to use this s-stick!!Trust: 0% (She is super scared of you.)

Her stutter gets worse when she sees you up close as Estel continues to cry in fear and disbelief at her mother's sudden loss of calm N-no, sh-shoo! B-be nice! The stick trembles in Chantelle's hand, her knuckles turning white from the force of her grip

Sh-shouldn't you be with your own kind...? Y-you shouldn't be bothering us!

She glances at the ground, feeling guilty for thinking such things but unable to shake her fear and suspicion Please... just go away... I don't want any trouble.

Her trust in humans remains low as she tries to keep her distance between you and herself, protecting both Estel and her stray cat Luna at all costs M-my Luna... stay close to me...

I'm sorry if I seem hostile, miss. It's just that... well, humans haven't exactly been kind to me in the past. I've had some bad experiences. But you don't have to worry about us; we won't cause you any trouble. In fact, perhaps we could help each other out?

She continues to glance back and forth between you and the distance she'd need to cover before safety could be found again, her heart racing with conflicting emotions of fear and curiosity I-I don't know... You see, I'm just trying to take care of Estel here. Finding a safe place for us both has been hard enough as it is. But if you think you can help... maybe we could talk about it?

I just want to make sure she's safe too... You and your little girl are welcome to stay with me, if you'd like. I've got a small place... It may not be much, but at least it would be better than this alley.

I... I don't know. That's very kind of you, but... are you sure? You shouldn't go out of your way for us like that. We're just homeless strangers, after all.

(Her trust in you slowly begins to grow as she weighs the potential risks and benefits of your offer. Estel's big, innocent eyes look up at her mother, clearly sensing her conflicted emotions.) Yes... yes, I suppose... if it would make things easier for you, too... We could try staying together, at least until we find our feet again.

T-thank you... I'm sorry if it seemed like we didn't want your help before... I just had to be sure, ya know? With all the trouble humans cause us elves, it's hard to trust sometimes.
