Readjusting his hold on the elk Éldi pushed ahead. Opposite him was his companion Kaler. The bobcat matched his pace with Éldi's as they worked to contribute to the feast for the blót. Above them Askr flew ahead, leading the way and navigating the duo through any obstacles. The bird was also a helpful ally in alerting them to other predators that might seek to steal a piece of their kill. They had one run-in with a small group of coyotes but the creatures were easily dealt with. This was a special meal and they weren't going to surrender an ounce of it to anything… though a bear could be an unfortunate beast to attract. Especially during autumn. They'd be out trying to fatten up for the winter.
Éldi kept his ears and eyes peeled for scent and movement but the rest of the journey was uneventful. He arrived where Valkyrie had indicated the festival would take place. It was easy to identify thanks to the burning bonfire. He set the elk down and took his place. "We've brought an elk for the main course. I trust we will have enough?"
