Torleik the Bloodskald

I breathe violence and love

His mood souring as of late, Torleik had wandered away from the Basin by himself yet again. Solitude seemed apt, now, like a tailored coat that had been gifted to him, one which he wore with sullen pride. So he made his way towards the Frozen Arch, wanting to see the sparkling ice and his distorted reflection within - to see if he felt the picture matched how he seemed inside.

But there would be no solitude for long, as some gathering of Helovians had begun to take place. A chill colder than anything nature could offer crawled up his spine and gripped his insides.

Was another one dead?

Was it Phi?

His heart drowned out all noise and the world drained of all color, desaturated hues of white and grey and black all that his brain registered. And like he'd been the one that sucked all the air out of the cave and suddenly let it all back in, everything came crashing back with a roar. The howl of the wind through the icy protrusions sounded so loud and the mare encased in ice had color once again.

For it was not Ophelia, and his heart could beat easier. Still, it ached every time it slammed against his ribs for these two. They looked so...young; so full of life - taken from them so suddenly. The puncture wounds on the female pegasus were strange and did not match the wounds on the male on the floor. And Torleik almost missed the bits of downy white feather on the ground, close as they were to the color of ice and snow.

What did they have so far? Black feather, sand, black hair, white feather? They did not match anyone he knew...but then again he didn't often associated with the feathered kind. With a sigh and a heavy countenance, the Bloodskald took his leave. He would need to tell Ophelia about this. They needed to discuss what they knew so far.
