Something scurried in the undergrowth. He had been hoping for something worthwhile, something large which he could sink his teeth in to. Fatten himself up over a carcass and enjoy many hot meals.
Instead there was something low-to-earth, scratching at the ice. The sound brought to mind a memory; the sight of a hare scrambling across an open field. The tremble of lupines. The taste of sun-baked soil in the air.
Raimo plunged across the snow without care of what, or who, might hear. He snapped at the shape as it vanished among the sedge, the black cowl across his shoulders blending in to the frenzy of the foliage.
The ptarmigan shrieked once, then all was still.
