Jade Fern Grove the gods envy us

for @Arbiter. temperament: melancholic

arinbjorn does not like being so far from the sea. the cairns were infamous seafarers and on the coast is where he belongs. all this land around him, absent to seducing roar of the ocean and the arid calls of gulls, the smell of saltbrine makes him feel as if he is caged; claustrophobic despite how the land yawns as endlessly as the sea. the nasty sea squall, however, had chased him inland to avoid to ferocious wrath of the sea as she raged and the chilling winds. a seafarer he was, masochistic he was not.

while he is forced inland until the pass of the storm he takes the opportunity to explore for a lack of anything better to do; not even bothering to feign interest. too much land. too much rock. how wolves lived so far from the bountiful coast, kraken would never understand. though the jade fern grove might be considered serene and beautiful to some he was, predictably, not impressed.
