Do you believe in Ice or Fire

Bleary blue eyes followed the little black form of the wolf that looked like she was made of smoldering coals as the little girl came round to seat herself in front of him. She was appraising him with those big blue eyes. It didn't go unnoticed the glances she was stealing up at his head, knowing she was staring at his antlers that looked suspiciously like icicles jutting out of his skull, but he was used to it. He'd been getting those looks from wolves for all his life; she would be no different from the norm. She began to speak, though her words made very little sense to him. What the hell was Ashen? Was it some sort of pack? How had he ended up in a swamp? There was a beach by a swamp? Where in the world had he washed up?!
After her short, confusing explanation came the slew of questions. Kumi fixed the little girl with a bewildered look, blinking rapidly to try and refocus his vision on her. His head was still spinning and a dull headache and begun to pound at the inside of his skull. She was giving him such a scrutinizing look, he didn't know how to take it at first. She almost looked... annoyed by him for some reason? "Kumiho. My name is Kumiho," he answered back, rubbing the back of his aching head with a paw while trying his hardest not to look at the piece of driftwood still in his leg like a spear. "I wasn't trying to get anywhere. I don't even know where here is. You said something about ashes...?" Nothing was making sense to him. It was all very frustrating and confounding.
Kumi had to resist rolling his eyes when the girl pointed out his wounded leg. "Oh really? I thought I was just starting to sprout like a tree," he quipped back, sarcasm painting his voice with a humorous snark. "Well, I'd really like to not end up bleeding to death out here, little miss." He glanced up and down the beach, mulling over his options. If this girl was out here on her own, her parents had to be somewhere close by. While it was a gamble, he didn't exactly have any better choices. "Are your parents nearby? Can they help?" he asked while turning icy eyes back to the girl.
