They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch

This place—it was cold, dreary. But nothing new. Her Khalasar had once inhabited a place like this. They knew how to keep warm. Yet here, she had no such ways.

Following her interaction with the man, Dragomir, she spent her day wandering. Learning. Deciding. This place may become home, but not until she decided.

When dusk approached, she searched for a place to bed. A crevice in the mountainside was the only place to stick out. But it would do. It was large enough for her alone. Maybe another, if they were careful. With ease, she settled inside, resting her cheek comfortably on her feet.

In her dreams, she would hope the Great Stallion would be with her. As he always was. But she did not sleep yet. Waiting. Praying in silence.

Sleepy, yet awakened hues fixed upon the man.

“Vos athdrivar, — Have none,” she grumbled.

How could she? She'd not been here long enough to obtain any. Not unless he was willing to fill in for what she lacked.

“Blood woman keep warm.” She would have to until she could make the furs for herself.

He'd said it was no joke. She did not believe him.

What had she seen? What was there even to see? “See mountain. Snow. Ice, in distant. It float.” Aside from that, and him, there was nothing else to see.

He spoke of hills, herds, and man. A new man. One she had not set her eyes upon. But she doubted that she would be impressed. She never had been before.

“Blood woman track herds when sun rise.” Tomorrow, she told herself. It would be a good way to test the territory. To know where the herds roamed and where they rested.

“This man...” she pondered aloud, curious and wanting for more detail. “Like us? Or stranger?” There were only few that would surely come upon this place like them. Would this new man be the third?
