My Questions for Will & Leigh
While they paused briefly on their journey through the Wilderwood, I had the chance to speak with Will and Leigh.
Michael: Welcome, Will and Leigh! Thanks for taking the time to chat with me today. It’s not every day you get to sit down with a thief and a fae warrior. Let’s kick things off with the obvious question: How did you two meet?
Will:Oh, you know, just the usual. “A thief sneaks into forbidden fae territory and gets caught and almost killed by a ridiculously good-looking fae warrior.” Really set the tone for our relationship.
Leigh: Don’t forget the part where you hit me over the head with a rock. That’s when I knew we’d be lifelong friends.
Will (rolls his eyes): I didn’t hit you that hard.
Michael: Hold on, Will, you knocked Leigh out?
Will (grumbles): It was a strategic decision, okay? I needed to escape, and he wasn’t exactly letting me waltz out.
Leigh (dryly): And yet, here we are, still stuck together. Funny how that worked out, huh?
Michael: Speaking of being stuck together, how’s that going for you two? Are you getting along any better now?
Leigh (giving Will a sideways glance): Getting along? Let’s just say, when you spend days trekking through a magical forest where everything wants to eat you, you learn to work together.
Will: Yeah, especially when your so-called enemy keeps saving your life every other day. He’s annoyingly heroic.
Leigh (smirking): Someone’s got to stop you from getting yourself killed.
„Nothing like the constant fear that your traveling companion might stab you at any moment to keep things interesting.“
Michael: Will, you’re a thief, and Leigh, you’re a warrior sworn to protect the Fae Realm. What’s it like coming from such different worlds?
Will (sarcastically): Oh, it’s a blast. Nothing like the constant fear that your traveling companion might stab you at any moment to keep things interesting.
Leigh (sighs): If I wanted to stab him, I would’ve done it by now.
Will: True. He’s also annoyingly patient.
Michael (laughs): Sounds like an interesting dynamic. Leigh, you’ve been quite vocal about your opinion of humans. Has Will changed that at all?
Leigh: (pausing for a moment) I’ve spent most of my life guarding the borders, and in that time, I learned not to trust humans. But Will ... he’s different. Stubborn and reckless, sure, but also loyal and resourceful.
Will: Oh, is that a compliment?
Leigh: (deadpan) Don’t get used to it.
Michael: And Will, what do you think of Leigh?
Will (avoiding eye contact): He’s ... well, he’s not as bad as I thought he’d be. And, uh ... (clears his throat) maybe I misjudged him a bit.
Leigh: A bit?
Will (scoffing): Fine, a lot. Happy?
Michael: Sounds like there’s more between you two than just a truce. Care to share?
Will (blushing furiously): N-no.
Leigh: (smiling faintly) I think that’s something we’re still figuring out.
Michael: Fair enough! Before we wrap up, any final thoughts for our readers?
Will: Yeah, don’t mess with fae warriors. They’re sneaky bastards.
Leigh: (shaking his head) And if you’re a thief, do yourself a favor and don’t set foot in fae territory. It never ends well.
Michael: Wise advice from both of you. Thanks again for your time, Will and Leigh. Best of luck with your journey through the Wilderwood!
Will und Leigh (in unison): We’re going to need it.
