Aiden continued to carefully create the winter gear for Neco. Even though she had proven herself capable, she still didn't seem to be 'dressed appropriately' enough for the cold. Shaking his head in almost disbelief, he could not understand what type of weather she, as well as those of the Blood Pack, had encountered. He did, however, want to eventually travel to such distant lands and see bear witness to such oddities.
But that would be later...first, there was a task with those of Twin Tusks that demanded his attention. This also demanded his attention, specifically, working on his battle strikes with the double bladed axe, and his archery. He needed to become swifter...stronger...even as his eyes glanced over towards the wolf pup, and saw some of himself in her as she, too, learned and grew.

Nauthiz'Ull Monday July 17th, 2006 1:32:32 AM
The days continue and begin to wear a bit thin on the impatient hunter and young man of the path. Since the test of adulthood Nauth has started feeling less and less content with everyday life in the village. In fact, in some remote way, he distantly envies the ways of the Twin Tusks as told to him by Aiden. Excitement, challenge, prowess and power all mix into the illusion; mainly, however, Nauth just misses the freespiritedness of the open tundra.
The talk to the villagers bringing a whale back from the great river snatch Nauth's full attention and he spends a bit of time talking to the hunters about how they would plan on doing such a thing.
Evening fire circles allow more time to chat with the wunjos as the young man spends a great deal of time with his favored wolf and with Mjolka'Frodr. He cannot describe the motivation but obligation does mix into the factor...pity too. Mjolka is a witch and an alchemist that stays to herself mostly; that draws the occassional teasing or fear-induced yelp from the youngest of the village-an act that Nauth is sure to address whenever he is present.
The past few weeks have allowed Nauth enough time to establish a lost connection with his body. His limbs have swelled a bit, his shoulders are broader as are his legs. Then he discovers quite the strange sensation; one day when playing with the pup Nauth found himself 'talking' with her. Startled, he ran to talk with Mjolka; she posited that he may be growing stronger as one of the path and that he is learning to tap into the magics of his destiny.
That night he talked with the wunjos at the fire about what happened to him and if they had expereinced anything similar to that.
