Skælingr eyed the kindling for a moment before adding a bit more, scooting some closer to the edge of the fire ring so the spars wouldn't have to go quite so far. Now that he thought about it… he grabbed a small branch and carefully arranged some kindling on top of it, setting that on the edge of the fire ring so he could strike right into that and then when it caught flame he could set the stick on the fire to start the rest of the kindling.

"A pleasure Eyrún. My name is Skælingr. Well… with a prayer at this point." He chuckled. "I jest. I intend to use flint and steel but it takes some doing to get it to actually work." He dug about the hide stretched across his travois and pulled out a chunk of flint which he set on the fire ring. He then grabbed a piece of steel. He set one paw on the flint to hold it stead with his weight. He then, with the steel in his teeth, twisted his head sharply so that the steel struck against the flint. He did this several times, pausing to adjust the steel in his teeth until at last the kindling caught a spark and slowly grew into a small flame. Skælingr gently maneuvered the stick onto the fire so the rest of the kindling could catch.

"There's plenty of sticks around. Would you like to try? You're welcome to use my flint and steel if you like."
