Winter's Embrace

Winter had arrived early in the north. The next day would be its official beginning but already the north was blanketed with snow. Birna moved through the snow, stalking on the perimeter of the reindeer herd she'd been following as they moved to their winter feeding grounds. The small group she'd originally targeted to be her new herd was now merging with several others as they all journeyed. They clicked as they walked and Birna considered whether she should find a way to mark hers so that they could be differentiated from the larger herd. Or perhaps it was best to follow the migration path separately?

It would be good to get a few more domesticated so that she had one to pull her sled. Right now she had one that she could pull, a few hides and supplies stacked on it. As the band became more formed it would be good to have hide tents for those that might not be as acclimated to the chill weather.
