Duskfire Glacier And to my word now I'll be true

Whilst his family members fought to keep him safe, the child found himself venturing into places where he shouldn’t. Since meeting the peculiar-looking pup, as he would always remember her as being, he’d been curious—curious about the world around him, of those that occupied it, and of how he might better relate to those he knew he should not. He was an adventurer, after all, and that was just what he was supposed to do.

Aningan tore across the glacier with his head tilted up towards the sky, eyes focused on a dark mass overhead whilst his legs pushed him to catch it. What it was, he did not know but fully intended to find out. From below, with the sun glaring down at him, it appeared only as a blackened being, further adding to the mystery of it all—a mystery that had him so deep within a trance that he didn’t realise he was coming up on one of his family members, nor that he was on a path bound to collide with him.
