Duskfire Glacier Ommatik

The man had not spoken to Meerkat since they had returned to the glacier and been informed of the deaths that had taken place in their absence. Issorartuyok had been dutiful. He had journeyed to their borders to make sure they were freshened. He had met with both Heda and Veteran to further their learning and to learn more about them both. The northerner felt he had been fortunate with the two apprentices that had found him.

Issorartuyok had thought of Meerkat frequently. He had ruminated on her words, the words of her mother, and the conversation they had shared with each other in the dark forest. The northern man could not help but to picture young puppies, eager and born into a village that was made of family. It played in his head more often than he would have liked.

That day, he carried a meaty haunch in his teeth and searched for @Meerkat in the village territory. He wished to see her, wished to take her food and make sure that she was not suffering after the loss of Wintersbane and his mate.
