It's A Good Day Above The Ground

Éldi and Askr continued their work, fangs and beak working evenly along the lines of the fawn. Éldi then used his jaws to grab hold of the flesh and he started to peel it as Askr hopped along the muscle, helping to snip the flesh off as cleanly as he could. With a final tug they pulled the pelt free and laid it aside with the fur side down to work on tanning later. For now though Éldi licked his jaws and grinned at Éyrun. "Aye, I'm Éldi and I have to say I appreciate your presence. Feels good to shoot the breeze. Seems like we've been harried ever since the eruption. The deer meat is ripe for the picking if you'd like any."

He moved toward the deer's head and immediately started working his powerful jaws below the creatures brow bone, over the eye sockets where the skull was weaker. A few sickening cracks sounded before Éldi looked back at Éyrun to explain himself, pausing for just a moment to admire the way the light hit her coat. "I'm going to tan the hide. It'll be good to either keep myself or to use as something for trade at the next blót. To tan it I need the deer's brain. Kind of gross I know but effective! So, what have you been up to since the eruption?"
