Offering a Smiling Phrase

Black ears flicked as the chimes and jingling noise grew louder amidst the snow drifts that resembled frozen waves locked forever against the base of the glacier. That wasn't a natural noise he had heard in his lifetime. Nako stopped walking and stood on stiffened legs as he wracked his brain trying to figure out just what would make such a sound. Nature however decided to reveal that it indeed wasn't anything it could produce as mismatched eyes saw a figure rise over a snow drift. Curious, the wolfs ears flickered as the source of the sound seemed to be coming from this wolf, scent telling him a female, and gave a quizzical tilt of his head. Racing thoughts had figured the chime had been something the humans had forgotten here as much as the barn in The Range or the castle across the land bridge in the south.

The female called out to him and he snapped out of his thoughtful revere as the distance between the two of the closed enough to see that beyond what he initially took to be a splotched winter pelt was in fact wrapped with a grayish cloth that shined with metal spheres. "Greetings." Nako chirped up as he wandered closer to her, noticing the prey scampering alongside her toes to be what he took for a ferret and was a companion to the lady before him. No name was immediately given and it was instead asked if he was out exploring. Wandering was more of the proper word, but now that he had come across the wall he only nodded and followed her gaze upward. "I'm Nako." The male said as he twisted his neck to try and see among the crags of the ice wall. "And yes," Nako continued as his gaze dropped to the woman and a slight bow of his head was given. "I was thinking what the view must look like from the top..." A gentle wag of his tail was given, eyes settling on the ferret. Was she having the same ideas he was about this place?
