The task of walking all the way back was daunting to say the least. Ajax had met a grand total of two others on his brief escapade. While some offered information, he did not seem to be that bothered by his new life outside of his new body. It still felt stiff and awkward for him to even move around. And while that may be amusing to others, the man did not like to be a fool for long. Yes, yes, people — erm, wolves — could laugh all they wanted at him. But in the end, he'd have the last one.
So he decided to stick around Elsewhen for now. The stars above his head were foreign to him, and with the dark sky encroaching the familiar Sun would be gone from sight. He strictly traveled during the daylight hours in order to stave off some of this damnable cold. Now that it was becoming dark out, Ajax settled in for the evening. His belly grumbled and burned, and he felt physically weaker than when he woke up, but the man was not used to hunting. His food had always been brought to him. But he knew, at least, he was hungry.
He'd have to eat soon.
The berries he had nibbled on, thankfully, had not been poisonous. But they had also been hard and like paste. The cold hindered a juicy yield. At least the little treat managed to keep him going. He sighed almost dramatically, looking around his surroundings and feeling terribly bored. But there was not much to do but sleep now. He managed to find a low-hanging tree to shelter him, half exposed and half not. Ajax had some awareness; being totally exposed made him exposed to the elements and other predators. But just as he was able to lull to the dreamworld, he heard a snap.
The pale man seemed to violently flinch, eyes staring across the expansive dark. "H...Hello?" Anyone there?
