The stranger did not speak, and Ashlyn pondered whether he could. Before he could ask, however, the other male tilted his head, gazing at Ashlyn curiously. The large pale man frowned slightly as he thought, then answered, "I'm from a land far from here - the arctic, in the far north." A land of frozen tundra plains, with scarcely a tree in sight. "I am merely seeking company; I'm afraid I've been on my own for longer than my liking." Here, he would smile to the other man, then asked apologetically, "I'm sorry - d'you speak? If not, that's alright." He smiled awkwardly. He was trying to make the stranger more comfortable, and hoped he hadn't rubbed him the wrong way.
