There was a very high amount of volume being presented with the expectation that Elke should process it all instantaneously and formulate an appropriate response.
Instead, with the con artist formerly known as Little Red scampering off with a giggle and Nevina approaching with a concerned look, Elke managed a sort of hesitant strangled-goat bleat as the pale color of her eyes flicked back and forth between the scenes.
'THAT'S Forlag?'
'Oh, wow, oh, dear, it's Nevina! She's so cool! Oh wow OH WOW!'
'Wait, why am I not freaking out? She just killed someone and--'
'Forlag is a squirrel? How can an animal be a proprietor?!'
'OH, NO, SHE'S SO COOL! I have to look like a total toad fart right now! I have to say something!
Quickly popping up onto her feet, shooting up from the leaf-litter so quickly even that she managed a few mites of air between her feet and terra firma, Elke announced, "I'm fine!" Her landing, just clunky enough to shake the dead foliage from her skirts, did not distract her from her quickly elevating mood.
Finally, at long last, the might huntress has captured her prey, and while her minor startle might have put a dent in the cool exterior she'd hoped to feign, her soaring spirits kept her mind on something else.
"And you!" she marveled, eyes sparkling with girlhood wonder. "You're Nevina, aren't you?" Not needing a response from the pity in question, Elke squealed - this time in delight and not panic - and began first dancing in little circles, then bouncing, and then a combination of the two until she was bopping up and down, round and round. "I've been trying to find you! Yes, yes!"
With energy to outmatch Forlag Bush-tail himself, Elke practically vibrated as her racing thoughts forced their way out as words. "Oh, I have so much to ask you! You have no idea what I've been through on this trip - or even just today! But it's worth it because I found you! You can help me with my research and I can finally write about you!"
