Stone Circle Its getting cold

Skáld halted when he heard a voice, and found the earth tilted sideways unpleasantly when he stopped. Dizzy. He side-stepped, and recovered well, with a half-amused smile. The greeting was in another tongue, but he understood the intention. "Hi," he chirped back, a puff of breath flowing from his mouth. The falling snowflakes withered in it again, catching his attention. 

The boy smiled. He barked again, and watched as the puff of breath melted the snowflakes that fell through it. "Melt! See?" He said, exhaling a puff of breath (sans bark this time) to show the blue-eyed boy what he'd discovered.
