Raider here

Striden looked around for a moment before shrugging and answering. "I don't think so. Maybe" It's true that this place may look better in the summer or something once it gets warmer. Honestly, he just hoped that it wasn't going to be too hot for him. The cold felt better and was easier to deal with in most cases. But anyway, miss black may not be from around here if she was asking questions. It's an assumption that he was going to assume was correct.

He decided to continue his little play. He looked at her again half in thought to give the impression he was looking for answers. "This place is a bit too open and empty, one would have to be tough and crazy to live here."
