Moonsong Glacier Songs We Don't Hear on the Mountain

Dutch had not met Massaraq before, but the scent of Moonglow reached him before he came up on the man. By the time he had him in his sights, his tail was wagging in friendly greeting.

"Peace be," he called out, trotting closer, but slowing his approach when he drew nearer. "What brings you here?" he asked, and then, before Massaraq had time to answer, he asked, "Are you hungry?"

He looked tired, Dutch thought. And like he needed to lay down his burdens and have a long rest. Dutch did not ask if he wanted help with these things, however; not all men took kindly to such things, and certainly not many young men.
