"Only if you come with me." She purred playfully, leaning over to kiss his cheek. Holding out one arm, she wrapped the heavy blanket around Thren's shoulders. She glanced over at the chair propped against the door, pursing her lips. There was definitely a tension in the air, but she wasn't...

She smiled warmly at him as the blanket was draped over her shoulders, and then she scooted a little closer to him to share the warmth. Her head came to rest again his broad shoulder while she nibbled on the jerky he'd given her. As the two of them lounged about the small room, the wind...

Vesper smirked at Thren, kneeling down to light the logs that were resting inside the hearth. It didn't take her long to stoke the flames to life, the warmth and golden light flooding the small room in a matter of seconds. Long shadows danced along the floor and walls as the flames spread over...

She glanced over her shoulder at him as he stepped up behind her, smiling brightly. "Should I get us a fire going?" The chill from outside was already starting to creep through the thin glass of the window. Cold was not an element Vesper was accustomed to and goosebumps were starting to form...

She smirked at him and stood up onto the balls of her feet to press a quick kiss to his cheek. If he wasn't particularly concerned, then she didn't see any reason for her to be worried. "You're cute when you say stuff like that." She teased. Stepping away from him, she started to explore their...

The old innkeeper nodded a few times, then promptly shut the door behind him on his way out. There was a distinct 'click' as he locked the door, and then his footsteps echoed off towards the stairwell. Vesper's brow furrowed slightly when she realized that they'd been locked in the room and then...

Vesper missed the social cues that they were blatantly being regarded as outsiders by some of the locals. All she could tell was that there were some people who looked at them, and others who didn't. Since Thren seemed perfectly at ease, it didn't even cross her mind that the barbarian was just...

It wasn't just the snow that captured Vesper's fascination. The buildings of the town were themselves an incredible discovery. She'd never seen such architecture before. Everything looked so sturdy. There were so many people meandering the muddy streets, more than Vesper had ever seen in once...

As they set off, the large raven perched on Vesper's shoulders leapt into the air and swirled over head. The woman of the Wilds seemed to follow the bird as it soared through the sky. Without the Raven's guidance, Vesper and Thren could have easily missed the township. It was nestled between...

She grinned and gestured to the crow that was perched on her shoulder when asked how she managed to find a place so quickly, as if that should be all the answer Thren needed. The bird loudly squawked, rummaging his beak around in Vesper's braided hair. "Well, it's like a village but...

The next morning, Vesper woke before the sun had fully risen. If Thren was concerned about shelter, then she wanted to find a place for them where he could rest. For a few hours, Vesper wandered the foothills, gathering edible and medicinal plants as she went. Eventually, she found what she...

She nodded a little in understanding, leaning into his arm for a brief moment. The fire they had would have to be enough for tonight. They had enough furs to keep them warm, but it was clear to her now that they would not be enough in the frigid mountaintops. "So, first thing's first, in the...

A frown touched Vesper's features when the barbarian gestured off towards the horizon. Her head canted slightly to the side and then she looked back at Thren with a puzzled expression. "What is a blizzard?" Being from the jungles of the Wilds, Vesper had never encountered such a storm before...

Vesper almost seemed to sense the discomfort that Thren was in, but she never made any comment about it. If he needed to rest, she would simply suggest that they take a break. Their journey was a long one, but there was no need to rush. Many a night was spent huddled together beneath the...

"How many times do I have to tell you, you don't need to thank me?" She scoffed playfully, shaking her head. It was a decent distraction from the excited burble she felt in her belly from his touch. "As for stupid places, I find the places don't tend to carry much animosity one way or another...
