Northstar Vale fire in my bones quakes

@Germanicus i heard mereo needs a medic :eyes:

the vale was familiar to her; she had mentioned as much to tessa, meant to be an idle comment as they passed through. but it seemed her sister had plans of her own, and what had been meant as an innocent remark turned into the perfect excuse for them to split temporarily. antha would stay in the vale and take her trip down memory lane, and tessa would... do whatever she was off doing. antha knew better than to ask by now.
she wasn't certain she enjoyed this plan, but the vale was peaceful, at least. antha walked idly through the snow, noting what scents still lingered under the ice. wolves nearby, perhaps... or simply passing through, as she was. or was she? tessa had seemed fond of the place. the witch mulled this as she finished her evening stroll, her thoughts eventually turning toward dinner. a mundane existence for now, but the simplicity was healing.
