Up, up, up the mountain they went. Each step seemed to make the journey even colder and soon there was a healthy dose of snow littering the treacherous crags. Io wasn't worried, however. She knew that Roan wouldn't lead her into danger. Well... too much danger. She trusted the man explicitly. Her life was his and his was hers. They were bound to one another. So much so, that when they arrived back at the cottage, she would take the cord that she'd used to bind their paws and would craft it into a hard, wax coated circle which she would then hang over their front door. It would bring them a happy home and would always remind them of their vows. As the incline ended and the mountainside flattened out, Io cast a curious gaze around. Ahead of them was a hole in the mountainside with a fur hanging over it. My, he definitely had been planning this if he'd managed to close off the cave. The married woman sent him a glittering, mischievous glance before being ushered forward and through the doorway, which he held open for her. Inside of the cave was more than she had imagined. The small woman's jaw dropped open in wonder. Roan had prepared for this with a lush pile of furs and blankets, petals and flowers and, once her eyes adjusted to the darkness within, candles. She couldn't help herself. Tears sprang to her eyes as a wave of emotion struck. He had done all of this for her. She was the only one on his mind when he snuck away to prepare this lovely surprise. In an effort to get herself together, Iolaire removed her back and placed it by the doorway. It was a heavy thing with all of the supplies that she'd packed in last minute. Digging her flint and steel out of the pack, Iolaire moved about the space, lighting the beeswax candles that Roan had procured from somewhere. Only when that was done and her teary eyes had absorbed that moisture once more, did she move to the man that she loved. Reaching up on tiptoe, she placed one chaste kiss upon his chin. "Thank you for this. Thank you for everything." Her next kiss wasn't quite as chaste as her lips moved over his own. "Thank you for being mine." "Speech" |
Io has a dwarf caribou companion and a snow leopard companion. Assume they aren't with her unless stated otherwise.
