"Oh!" The man nodded towards the forest. "Here he comes now!"
Sure enough, a figure emerged from the forest, carrying a bundle of chopped-up wood on his back. This newcomer was also blond, but unlike the first man, he was unusually tall and frowning heavily.
"Ah, Berwald!" said the shorter man, taking no note of his friend's apparent displeasure. "You found a lot of firewood today, I see."
Berwald nodded. He then glanced at Alfred, and then back at the shorter man.
"Oh," said the shorter man, scratching his head. "This is..."
"Alfred."
"Yes, Alfred. He was passing by, admiring the lovely forest."
There was silence, as Berwald stared at the soldier.
"Yes," said the shorter man. "Where are my manners? Alfred, this is Berwald. My name is Tino, and -"
"Good to meet you, Alfred," Berwald cut in. His voice was low, like thunder. "I see you already met my wife."
"Eh? Why do you keep saying that?" asked Tino, alarmed.
Alfred stared at the two strange men. Berwald stared back at him. Tino looked as if he wanted to crawl into a ditch.
Finally, Berwald grunted. "I am going to take these to the back," he said, hefting the firewood up on his shoulder.
"Um...hey! Where did you find that?" asked Alfred. "It's normal wood, isn't it? Not gold at all?"
"No, it's regular wood," said Tino, clearly seizing this new topic of conversation. "If you go deep enough into the woods, the trees aren't made of gold. I don't go in there much, but Berwald gets all of our firewood from there."
Berwald grunted and nodded.
"It sounds very mysterious," said Alfred. "I wouldn't mind having a look!"
"Oh, be careful if you do go in there!" warned Tino. "You don't want to run into the great white bear!"
