Darkness, he wasn't unused to- but the cold? He loathed it. He hated the way it made his skin dry and ache, and even crack sometimes. And to be forced to wear so many layers of clothing- just a hassle. And he hated extra, unnecessary burdens.

But could he recall that? Could he really know what had transpired or what he had already known? For even when he awoke to a white washed world of snow, shivering with blue lips, he immediately felt an absolute annoyance flood like a fire through his veins. But he only had sensations, for his mind was muddled, and though he tried to desperately seek out an answer within his head-
No matter how much he tried, only flashes of things, objects, beasts that made no sense, had come to him..
One even, in his mind, coming after him.

He shook it off in a hurry, and glanced around, teeth chattering as delicate flakes of snow began to fall.

The cold. I hate the cold. Why is it so cold?

He sat up with a start, his entire body trembling as he rested a hand down into the cold, wet substance. Jerking his hand back, he looked at the melting ice crystals on his bare fingers and his eyes widened even more. He recalled the snow, some laughter- like the tinkling, fading echo of a bell, and also the same feeling he was over whelmed with now.

He grit his teeth and continued to look around, and though he didnt' wish to touch it, he had to, and used both of his ungloved hands to push himself to his feet. But he did so rather quickly, and his shoes were ill equipped for the slippery, thick wet snow, and soon his arms were pinwheeling, and he, slipping back- and he gave a shout and groped onto the nearest tree, but only was able to grab onto some of the lower branches which could hardly support his weight.

In a snap, he went down, and so did hte branches- and also, a small avalanche of snow.
And as he lay there, almost completely buried within the snow that had once been decked in the tree, he froze up, sensing intense hatred along with the intense cold before panicking, he began to kick wildly to break free- and in doing so- he heard a yelp.

His memories rushed back to him- the blackness..
a beast...
And as the snow fell away as the man scrambled to get to his feet, he saw the beast from the flash before him and gave a yell, scooping up a nearby broken tree limb that was almost double his size, but five times as thin, and held it out defensively, while the dog, who was shaking off his head from the kick. Turned to glance over at the snow covered man with a curious tilt of his head.


And then he barked, and Ehvren- or so he thought was his name to be, gave a shout and stumbled backwards over his own boots- and onto his ass into the snow he went, the large tree branch in his hands whacking off  yet another tree-
and showeirng him in a second bath of cold, clumps of powdery white snow.

The dog watched Ehvren's antics in the snow with its head cocked quizzically to the side. If one believed a dog to be capable of such a thing, it might even look like the beast was silently judging the strange man bumbling about in the snow. He gave another bark when Ehvren snapped the tree, sending snow flying everywhere.

Above the scene unfolding in the snow, a white snowy owl landed in the top of a nearby pine. Of course, 'above' was all relative. The trees here were stunted little pines, their growth kept in check by the harsh conditions of the north. To the south of the trio, the pines became more frequent, gradually developing into a snow-blanketed forest. To the north, the trees were few and far between, and resembled people or creatures weighted down by mantles of snow,  until they finally stopped altogether before the snowy expanse of the Sionad Tundra. There was only a dim glow of light to illuminate the scene. This time of year, the sun only rose for an hour or so, and only just to peak up over the horizon then sink back down. It was already set again now, and the long night was just beginning. The owl gave a long, low hoot, which was answered by another bark from the dog, then the bird flapped away back into the taiga.

A few minutes later a girl appeared coming from between the snowy trees of the taiga, pulling a little, laden dog-sled behind her. It might not be immediately obvious that she was a woman, though. In the thick fur coat, its furry hood pulled over her two long braids of hair, and tall fur boots, she could have been anyone.

"What'd you find, Kanut?" the approaching figure called in a strong, bright, sing-song voice. The white sled dog turned a circle to face the woman, then immediately back to carefully observe Ehvren.

Nuna Akkilokipok pulled the sled out of the forest, then left it to come examine the newcomer. She radiated a warm, friendly air. "Hello!" she called once she got sight of Ehvren. "What are you doing in that snow bank there? You're breaking all our trees!"

Her cheerful disposition did not go ignored. But it was not welcome, and he reacted as cold as the snow around them as he growled through his teeth. Not a trusting man, at least not in his position, anyhow, he leaped up from the snow and pointed the mighty tree branch in her direction.

"Don't come any closer!" he snapped. "And it was the trees that attacked me first!"
Because what good would attacking a tree do for him!? And it wasn't like he put it there! And who was she to make any claims!?

Nuna's first response to the snapping, bristling foreigner buried in the snow bank was to cock her head to the side. So that girl and dog were looking at Ehvren with mirror expressions, as though they were one brain in two bodies.

"Trees don't attack people," she said simply.

What a strange man! But, Nuna thought, maybe he was a stranger from a very different land. It wasn't uncommon to find such outcasts thrown onto the tundra without any clue as to how to survive. And here they were on the edge of the forest, it was possible. Or maybe he was slow. Or mad.

"Up here it takes them so long to grow. Even a little one like that, she pointed to the tree he'd snapped a sizeable part off of, "it's over a hundred years old. It's hard for them to grow tall and strong with the hard, long winters and the arctic wind."

Nuna tilted her head in the other direction, reconsidering him. Kanut, the dod, did the same.

"You look like you just arrived here. You're not dressed very well for the winter."

Trees don't attack!? He bristle and gave a scoff.
"Perhaps these ones do!" For in truth, he'd witnessed attacking trees before. It was kind of unnerving. Obviously, she never had been attacked by a tree before! Though he supposed attacking trees were smarter than this. One hundred years to grow? Here? It was too damn cold for him to care, however, and if this stupid tree decided to pick this spot to grow, how was it his fault!?

He glared at her, where as she and her dog were curiously looking at him. He didn't like this look. The pair of them were like twins. Were they up to something? This place looked lousy- and at such a comment about being ill-prepared, he snorted.

"Of course I'm ill prepared!" he snapped, still clinging to the hefty branch, which he pointed at her. "I'd never choose to be in such a waste land!" For as far as his eyes stretched was a strange, white ash that glowed. And it was cold. He never liked the cold, not really. It always reminded him of...


Well, what did it remind him off? And he growled again, not liking the idea his thoughts had 'gone missing'.

"No, these one's don't," Nuna answered confidently, but without losing her friendly demeanor. Maybe he really didn't know. But she did. She knew each and every one of these trees. She'd certainly had the time. That one, that he'd broken a piece off of, she'd seen when it was a sapling. But it was a strong one, and Nuna thought it would recover.

"Do you need help?" she asked after another series of moments in which the girl and dog considered him. "You'll freeze to death out here dressed like that. I have a little Goahti not far away. I might have some spare furs there."

Nuna considered him for a moment before adding, "And it isn't a wasteland. You'd be surprised by how much life there is here. Not just in the taiga, but on the tundra, too."

Ehvren's face twisted in great distaste at such a suggestion. Help.. from her? He stared from woman to dog, back to the woman again, the branch still in his grip, tight.

"It might not be a wasteland to you," he sneered. "But lands covered with this much, cold white ash are wastelands," he said with finality. And what other life? Are he saw were a few dinky trees and shrubs about. And the only animals was that weird bird from before, and well- this dog, who seemed to be the woman's companion of some kind.

Nuna gave a clear, ringing laugh at Ehvren's complaint.

"'Cold white ash?'" she repeated, smile clear on her face. "You aren't from around here!"

In fact, the man must be from very far away indeed! Though Nuna had never traveled south of the taiga, she talked with outcast and exiled travelers from Connlaoth and Serendipity and she knew that, at least there, they still had snow! Cold white ash! How funny!

Nuna decided that, whether he wanted it or not and however unpleasant he was being, this man clearly needed help. And there was no one else out here to give it but her. So she trudged through the deep snow to him and extended her hand to help him out of the snow bank. She paid no mind to the branch he held 'threateningly' out at her. What did he think he was going to do with that?

"Come on," she offered, "let's get you in front of a fire and dry you off."

He didn't like her tone, especially since he was still so confused! So he growled at her and held his tree branch tighter.
"Fire?! What good would that do in a land so cold? This place is worst than the Seraj Isa at night!" But how he knew that name, that location, he couldn't say.

Nuna withdrew her mittened hand. It seemed like the man was determined to freeze to death! She took a step back and looked at him, head tilted again.

Kanut, for his part, gave a sharp bark at the man as he brandished the tree branch.

Then Nuna gave a shrug. "Fire would warm you and dry off your clothes. The snow will get them wet. But alright, if you don't want to come, you can stay here."

Nuna turned back and trundled back through the snow to her sled. Kanut followed. As she set about fixing the sled's harness around Kanut's strong body, she called casually back to Ehvren, "Watch out for Bumbles, though. The last bit of light will be gone soon and they'll be out here, looking for fresh meat."

Bumbles, as all Yuuit children knew, were a myth used to scare children to go to bed. But Ehvren, she guessed, wouldn't know this.

The man blinked, his odd, dual layered and colored hair askew and brushed over his face. He wasn't sure why he felt a sudden surge of panic go through him- but what did she mean...

"Bumble?" his face twisted in question, his voice echoing after her. "What do you mean, a Bumble?"

OOC: lol Bumble XD

"The Bumble?" she repeated, making a show of going about and getting Kanut settled in the harness. Really she was stalling.

"I mean the Bumble that lives out here on the tundra," she answered casually, tying ropes, "the one that comes down from the ice mountains. Oh, but don't worry! So long as he's eaten, he won't bother you, probably. But I wouldn't make any pig-ish sounds if I were you! Bumbles love pork. Might eat you even if he were full! Of course," she said thoughtfully, with a ho-hum air of talking about the weather, "of course the reindeer herds have just moved on from this area, so the Bumble might be hungry."

She got on the sled and turned to Ehvren. She smiled and said brightly, "Oh, but don't worry! The Bumble might not even come this way. Anyway! Nice to meet you! Good luck!"

Was she toying with him? He knew she seemed too happy for her own good! Too cute too! She was probably a demon and wanted to watch him get eaten by this terrifying Bumble beast!
"Hey!" He barked after her, rushing towards her sled, large tree branch still in hand. The advancement made the dog growl, but Ehvren growled back. Then he turned to the woman.
"So you're just going to leave me here to be eaten?" Because maybes to him were just round about ways of avoinding yes!

Nuna made to look as though she were just about to set off in the sled - in reality, she wasn't; she wasn't going to leave the strange man unless she really had to - but she paused mid-motion and turned to Ehvren. She looked at him, her wide dark eyes looking almost surprised or confused that he was rushing after her with accusations of being abandoned.

"I invited you back to the Goahti," she said simply, matter-of-factly, and a touch innocently. "You didn't want to come. I think that you should, but I can't force you to take an action you don't want to."

She smiled then, brightening up. "But of course you're still welcome! It'd be nice to have some company. And I had a shaman cast an anti-Bumble spell on it."

Ehvren might miss it, but there was an amused look lurking right behind the surface of Nuna's white lies.

Ehren looked at her incredulously. He wasn't sure how it happened- but clearly she must've tricked him into it, and he growled and stormed over to her.
"I'll follow you to.. to... where ever that is! But I'm keeping my stick!" he added with finality.

"Oh! You're coming after all. Excellent!"

Nuna smiled brightly back at Ehvren. Her eyes twinkled at the stick he clutched. Well, let him keep it. He wouldn't do any real damage with it, and if it made him feel better?

"Go ahead and get up on the sled," she instructed him as she mounted the back of the dogsled. "Kanut's stronger than he looks and he can take us both!" Part of the enchantment laid on both of them was that Kanut had been growing stronger and stronger with each successive century that the pair wandered the arctic. She paused, then added kindly, "Of course you can keep your stick if you like. I wouldn't part you from it."

Ehvren simply stared. Her sweetness... It left a bad taste in his mouth. Or was that blood? Pah!
Growling, he clutched his tree branch tighter. Was she mocking him? Peering over at the sled, then to her, he shook his head.
"You expect us to fit on... that? And that.. that... beast to pull us?" How ludicrous! Stronger than he looked! The dog was pint sized, as far as he was concerned!

"Don't listen to him, Kanut," Nuna called encouragingly up to the snow-white dog. Then she turned to Ehvren again. "Okay, if you don't want to ride on the sled, you  can follow the tracks. There shouldn't be any others to confuse you along the way. Then I can have some time to get a fire started and put together something warm for you. But don't dally," she told him, her face turning serious now. "Remember: Bumbles."

They ride in the sled while he walked?! It smelled like blasphemy to him! But at the reminder of the Bumble, hesucked in a breath through his teeth.
"Wouldnt it be safer if I did walk?" If a creature was so vicious and had a reputation, surely no meager sled would protect them. And he was certain he could out run the small beast pulling the sled.
Or was he himself tiny? He certainly didn't feel as tall as he should, or could.

"Oh, definitely not!" Nuna responded brightly when Ehvren asked if it was safer for him to walk. "But I can't force you to get on the sled if you don't want to. If you walk, though, I'd make sure to use that branch of yours to cover your footprints behind you. Don't want the Bumble following us home! He's not too interested in sled tracks. He knows a sled is too fast for him! But one walker, on his own? Slow and an easy catch!"

Nuna smiled brightly at him, much as though they were talking about the antics of a toddler or some other - mostly - harmless beast.

"Anyway, then! See you at the Goahti!" She gave Kanut a 'mush!' and the dog started off. The sled was just slow enough at the beginning, though, that Ehvren would be able to catch them if he ran!
