Nighmare seals

Confidence and stupidity was something Delphi had an insurmountable amount of. Though she was intelligent in her own right, she was also... dangerous. For such a tiny girl, she had the world wrapped around her pinky finger. Held high, hoisting it all for everyone to see, she would ensure that they knew who was in charge. Her. So as she stood beside the bear, watching the man lick the gore from his lips and present a new challenge to her, she wouldn't deny. A challenge was exactly what she needed. Blinded by the security of safety from those that protected her, Delphi followed the stranger north. Farther north than she had ever been before.

The expanse of the tundra that sprawled out before her was both intimidating and beautiful. Ice and snow shone in the afternoon light as the sound of paws crunched in her ears. Wind pushed at her blood-stained body and she allowed it to carry her to the edge where the land began to give away and nearly frozen water pushed back up against it. Stopping with her toes curling over a piece of ice, she looks out to the dark depths that he motioned toward. If she stayed still enough, focused just right, she could hear the noises. Clicking, moaning, guttural noises that she couldn't put a face to. "What are they?" She asks, gaze moving back to the shadowed man.
