The Spine was high rocky peaks littered by trees, where they could even grow. It had snow year near the clouds so it was no surprise that white powder covered most of it during Winter. The season of the long sleep was always tough in the Spine. The feral land was hard enough to survive in when resources were plentiful for a hinterland and it only got worse when they became more scarce. Getting lost or forgetting to prepare enough food ahead of time was deadly in this season, even if Spring was slowly waking everything up.
This land was Weylin's home so he had known how bad it could get. For that reason he had turned an old dwarven ruin he had found into a winter camp. It was either an outpost or a farm or hunting lodge. He didn't know enough about dwarves to say what exactly it was. All he knew was it had rooms made from thick stone with a still sturdy roof covering the whole thing. It kept the weather out and kept any warmth in. That already was enough to make it perfect for his needs but it also contained a firepit that could be used to smoke meats. Weylin had plenty of smoked meat and could smoke anymore he obtained. The hunter and his dog were in paradise over the hardest season for once since he lost his home and family.
Weylin sat by the firepit with a low flame softly popping in it. He was working on his cloak with a bone needle and thread made from animal sinew. A big, fluffy mountain dog laid not far away sleeping. White would kick or whimper every so often as she dreamed of a challenging hunt. Her human just let her be. Nothing was wrong in their world for once. There was no dragon or giant or living corpses to deal with. Nothing was expected of him or his companion but to enjoy the quiet evening soaking in the warmth of a for once big fire.
