He mustn't be able to walk very well. You hear a hubbub from the next room behind the closed door - voices arguing, it seems. Probably loud enough that your call wasn't heard, as no-one has come to investigate yet. "Keep on talking about orcs," the boy explains. "I know what they are, too. orcs and goblins and trolls. They was all in there fighting against Llamar and Thunderwing. Tall as a tree, right? Great big tusks and roars like dragons." Less than accurate, but better than nothing.

"Er, yeah. Basically." I attempt to pick him up again and bring him over to the door, where I knock as loudly as possible.

(On your profile, there's a section under Crimson's picture that says 'Stage: Pup (4/12)'. That's 4 out of 12 in-game days. When the day is over that'll be 5. I tried to keep it realistic but not so long it'd be a real life year or something, but it really depends on if time is passing quickly or not.)

Crimson sniffs, leaning into your hand. "I never saw my first winter, but everyone always said they were cold and merciless. We hold fire within us, but still they said it was cold."

Shootingstar smiles a little but shakes his head, curling his feathery wings around himself to show he can keep himself warm. He was born in the mountains, too, so should be fine.

It takes some time to go around the square and dodge people moving in and out of the buildings you're checking, but eventually you find one that is mainly made of stone and has a great big anvil in front of it. A woman with a thick apron on hammers a white-hot bit of metal. Must be Callus.

(Heh, well we'll see if that turns out to be true then)

There are larger buildings down the other side of the square that could be warehouses. Knight follows your gaze and pads over to them, but as he nears torchlight creeps across the wall. You hear voices and footsteps nearing.

He holds onto your hand and limps over, waiting with you as the heated discussion goes on, but this time with footsteps coming over towards the door.

It opens, and a female voice says: "Bramdur, what do I keep on telling you-"

The dwarf on the other side of the door stops, door wide open and revealing the next room. It seems like a general living space, beds and a table covered with plates of half-eaten food occupying the same room. A few small windows are open and lanterns swinging on the walls, casting flickering light on the four other dwarves in the room, halfway through an argument that only dissapates when, one by one, they all notice you.

"Sorry ma," Bramdur, the dwarven boy, apologises. He lets go of your hand and balances on one foot, looking at the ground. "Jus' wanted to go on the roof, is all."

The yeti looks from your gesture to the cuff, a look of wonder on its face at the idea you're proposing. It offers its hand forward eagerly, watching your every move intently.

"Hi," I say, raising my hands.

"Knight, we need to move!" Nicote whispers loudly, loking for somewhere to hide or something,

"Hey, are you Callus?" I say and try to get her attention. "Roth sent me here."
