Northstar Vale Appangik

Greetings, Imperator of Mereo.

The northerner regarded the man carefully. He was alone with the children of the glacier. It did not bode well to hear that there were wolves with ill intent in the area. To know that bad spirits were so close had made him feel at risk.

I am called Issorartuyok. I am Alpha at Duskfire Glacier, he motioned with a sweep of his muzzle toward the distant glacial territory – far out of sight, but he knew it to be to the east. There is a sickness in our herds and we must move. I travel with aspiring protectors and scouts to find our new home. We are only passing through these lands. There was no reason for tension or hostility, he wished to say. He only wanted to make sure the children were kept safe and that they moved through the mountain range unharmed.
