Stjarna's wandering took them farther north. Summer was the best time to explore the northern regions so Star figured it was worth a shot before the weather turned cooler. Not that their siblings were likely to want to live in such cold areas but Star couldn't help their curiosity. Despite it being summer the air was chilly and the wind cold. Star moved carefully along the rocky terrain, being careful to time their steps to prevent slipping.
Star worked their way down to the base of the Polar Sound, near the ocean. The sound of the waves crashing on rock was enjoyable. The sound of whatever the hell that was was not. They turned to see a giant… uh… a giant. What were they looking at? It looked like a great, fleshy, meat slug with tusks! Stjarna wondered it if was edible before noticing the creature was charging a wolf with horns and another wolf. Uh oh! Stjarna darted forward, fangs sinking into one of the back flippers. It made some strange groan-like roar and twisted around toward them. Star nimbly leapt aside.
