I sent a prayer for something holy

Iðunn looked at him with a curious glint in her eyes as he spoke of his own people, interested at the mention of a seer. A seer, otherwise known as a Völur, was the most important role within the religious roles of her home, and as a priestess in training she had often tried to get a closer look at the woman while they partook in their ritualistic prayers. She'd never been able to get close enough to speak with her, but the admiration she held for the woman was almost as strong as her own faith in the old gods. To hear that Barghest's people had a seer of their own made her instantly feel more welcoming towards him and where he came from. Surely that meant he had similar beliefs, even if those he worshipped were not her own gods.
She canted her muzzle to the side at his comment, ears twitching forward to show her interest in his words. "Will you..." her words trailed off as she searched for the correct word she wanted to say, struggling for a few moments to translate it from her native tongue, "...teach me about these habits, sometime soon?" Hunting was a newer skill she had needed to pick up once they left home, particularly since some wolves in her group ate so much every single day, and so everyone needed to pitch in to find prey.
A simple shrug of her shoulders was offered in response, and she let out a soft sigh that blew a cloud of smoke around her face. It wasn't as good as home, but it seemed like the next best place that was far enough away they didn't need to worry about being followed. "It is warmer than I am used to, but I believe we can make it feel more like home with time." She knew Víðarr would have many plans to accomplish that, and trusted him to make the right judgement calls.
"What about you? How are these lands compared to your home?" His accent was wildly different from not just hers, but the other wolves that lived here, and she wondered what his birthplace was like, and if it was as cold and harsh as her own. Maybe they were all as oddly coloured as him?
