Heron Lake Plateau No I don't wanna fall in love

Ulrich blinked and stared at Adylaide for a moment, impressed by her thought process. That's good thinking, he said. Finding somewhere more fortified would probably be safer, yes. Well... it would make me feel better, anyway.

"Ully, can you hunt the creatures under the water?"

Ulrich stared down at the frozen lake, his breath fogging in the air. For some reason, he was reminded of tales of sea monsters he had heard as a pup, things that the older guards had said to scare him as he went through his training. Somehow, he did not think that that was what Adylaide meant. He shook his head a little, with a smile. I... don't have much practice hunting fish, unfortunately. However, if there were nothing else and I were starving, I'm sure I would learn quickly. He looked at her. Why? Are you hungry? His voice was laced with concern here at the thought of her hungry. We won't get any fish for some months yet, not with the lake frozen, but I'm sure we could hunt something else.
