Blackfeather Woods death gazes in all directions, as curious as a hand, with blind eyes

maybe @Potema? ;-) but all welcome — i haven't decided if this is a joining thread or not :0!

Kjalarr seeks out the dark woods as the boy Vaati had described to him back when he’d first met him near the base of the Sawtooth Spire. Their deal had fallen through and Kjalarr had headed into the deep, frigid tundra that lay in the far north. The fresh, angry maroon scars that mar the flesh of his left eye smart with a phantom pain. The nerves in the marred flesh are long since dead but he remembers the excruciating pain — just as he had once felt on his muzzle but those scars are old, faded and flesh pink with time. A low huff leaves the ásabragr’s lips as his pace slows, heavy footfalls growing quiet against the bracken as he nears the borders. The stench: metallic scent of blood mingled with the sickly sweet scent of decay marry together to create a scent that gets it’s message across: stay away. This display does not phase him …how could it when he’s done so much worse? There are worse things than mutilating wolves …like supping upon their flesh. It had been done out of desperation, out of the instinct to survive but that does not erase it from his mind.

He stops a respectful way from their borders, wishing that he had the woman’s name. He could not recall if Vaati ever mentioned it or not; though he thinks he suspects who she might be. Ondine was not the first woman he had coupled with during her heat season and the boy was about the same age as Arrille himself ( the boy, Atli assumed was safe and sound in Neverwinter Forest with his mother ) which only left the mysterious woman he’d lain with first. Freyja, he had called her for the need to call her something. He tips his head back and lets out a low howl, announcing his presence wondering if his memory serves him correct and if his suspicions will be right or not. And if he is what he will say …if anything at all.

He knows he should have went to Neverwinter Forest first but Kjalarr acts on impulse and his impulse gravitates him here.
