I Froze My Underwear To Stay Cool

Éldi trotted along, quietly moving next to Aerndis as the pair tracked a herd of deer. They were getting close, he could feel it. Since the brilliantly colored woman and he kept crossing paths he'd invited her on one more hunt before he rejoined Hjarrandi and she headed west to search for her missing family. He'd offer to go for some sort of reward but she didn't really have much to offer and he had been away from Hjarrandi's home base for longer than he probably should've been this trip. Though all said he hadn't slacked in his duties to keep everyone fed and that was the most important thing.

The duo came upon the herd. It was small and scraggly, apparently having come up from the southern territories, seeking greater plant life. There were only four deer but the buck seemed to be in poor shape. Mucus was dripping out its nose and it was breathing heavily. Aerndis glanced at him and he nodded. Time to go!
