All My Life Is Wrapped Up In Today [AW]

Jaelle described the lands that lay beyond the pass. Most of it sounded rather mundane to her but the mention of a forest frozen under the ice caught her attention. That was something she'd like to see… but perhaps she'd wait for winter before journeying through this pass, after all she'd often learned the hard way that curiosity alone was rarely worth the risk of death. "Well, it all sounds very fascinating but I'm an herbalist so I don't think I'll bother with the journey til the summer when I can get some work done." Rœkia couldn't help but be practical. She had to be. She didn't have a pack or anyone to fall back on and every step utilized energy she didn't have to waste. Of course she had travelled all this way so her companion could get his snow fix so maybe she was secretly an idiot after all.

Rœkia carefully watched as Jaelle shook her head. Stating that she'd been making her way through when an avalanche struck, burying her. Rœkia shuddered. Ok, she definitely was not going through the pass now, no way in hell. She stated that the snow seemed to be holding up. Rœkia shrugged lightly causing Wolf to chirp in irritation. "Oh hush, I'm not your bed," she hissed at the bird before turning to Jaelle, "I suppose so, though hearing about you being buried alive…. I might just turn back. This is all a bit nuts for me. I don't have anywhere to be or any plans anyway. About how many days journey is it around this do you think?"
