Duskfire Glacier These quiet hours

@Steele perhaps?

It's been some time since Uki ventured beyond the glacier, since she found the smoke-crafted southerner - Steele. There's light in her heart that was not present when they met, she's at peace with the suspicions and doubts she voiced to Tomkin. 

As the sun set, his light fading for the paler illumination of Tiqaqq, the tundrian departed from her den - a ghostly figure as she left the caverns behind in favor of crossing through the forest, racing over the icefields.

Autumn had come, if she was not mistaken, though it was still much warmer than the north. The air was cold, particularly atop the glacier, frigid as it raked through her feathery coat like icy fingers. The wind howled in her ears, more beast than wolf. 

She didn't slow until she caught a whiff of the southron male, turning abruptly and beginning to track the scent trail back to Steele.
