That Sea is just a Gambler at Heart
Dómari was so wrapped up in his own head he failed to pick up the mood of the cave. This had to be destiny that here he was looking for wolves to sled with and two were right here in front of him! Now, he just had to find a good slope on these mountains. Something gentle enough for a stress free ride but wild enough that it wouldn't be boring. The male looked intently at him and asked what sledding was. Dómari stared at the man. He'd never been sledding? What a travesty! His parents ought to be ashamed.
"Sledding is awesome! You find a hill or a slope with lots of snow then you flop on your belly or an animal hide or a big piece of bark and then you slide to the bottom. It's for fun… although… I suppose you could make it into training." Dómari's brain immediately went to two wolves sliding down opposite slopes and trying to slam into each other. Maybe it would make more sense as strength training. Yea, that would work! "You have to go back up to the top of your slope to sled again so I suppose there's something of a workout there. Especially if you have lazy siblings that make you haul them to the top of the hill. Kind of like strength training. But why would you want to train when you can just have fun?"
Dómari knew the importance of training. If fact that was part of the reason he'd headed north but he believed that training needed to be spiced up with bouts of fun. Sort of like a reward for a job well done. He was about to continue when the woman moved toward him in a way he couldn't quite comprehend and for a moment he was struck dumb. Her scent washed over him but it made him feel… uncomfortable. Something was a bit off but he pushed the thought aside because she said sledding sounded like fun! He grinned. "Yes! I'm sure we can find a good slope. I don't have anything to sled on. I was going to go on my belly but winter is a good time to hunt for sleds. I'm Dómari by the way." The woman moved for the exit and Dómari stepped aside in an after-you sort of manner then turned to the man with a grin. "You coming?"
