The quiet cold

The warmth of the two girls had taken out the bitter chill of winter, and her coat had dried after the attention both of them had given to it. The warmth filled her veins, and she knew she was no longer at risk of getting hypothermia. She could still see the snow falling, gentle dances of white against the dark. She didn't know how much time has passed when sleep had claimed her, but it couldn't have been long.

Her eyes glanced back to Aderra, the older warmth also seemed perfectly comfortable in the small den, which was shaped so the angle of the wind didn't enter. She hobbled forward, rearranging herself so she could curl back up on the mossy floor.
"A companion?"
She hasn't expected her friend to cash in the favour so quickly, and well she wasn’t keen of the same places and the same faces day in and day out; her wondering nature was at play there, she also recognised that this was the least she could do. "I would love to travel with you for a little while, I feel we could learn much from another, and I would rather enjoy it." Her face creased into a pleasant smile as she looked up from her paws, "yes, I will." She agreed. She would travel with Aderra for a time.
