She finds herself shivering, sea water dripping from every angle of her soft frame, rivulets like waterfalls pattering onto the wet sand akin to spring rain. He is agitated, this stallion of steel and cream; fear rims his strange golden eyes. Black head tilts in curiosity, blue eyes narrowing in concern. The stranger stammers and bleats while Frozen King watches the doe's blood pool on the sand like a minor river, leaving an ugly dark stain.

He thought they were drowning, although she could not think of a reason why - were they not speaking calmly, the serene sea lapping gently at their bodies? Mauja's frozen gaze meets her's for a moment - he is amused by this iron stallion clothed in leather, but her eyes are with worry. The FrostHeart explains their situation with frolic, and the rainchild remains mute, tracing the hide harness with curiosity. She has never seen such things, although she quickly comes to the conclusion that they are made of skins - does he craft such things from the dead, like the poor deer on his back?

"Why is there a dead doe on your back?" she asks bluntly after an age of silence, regarding the elephant in the room with little grace and less tact, although there is kindness on her face. There is a veil of stars above them, although the sky is not quite dark - more a middling grey, with hints of soft orange and muted pinks. She wishes it would rain, although it wouldn't happen, it couldn't happen. It must be this sun god, she thinks unhappily, her mouth dry, recalling what Giant had said upon her arrival to home - a charred and ugly thing facing the vast and sad and beautiful sea; what does she think of the rashness of this deity?

The rainchild knows the answer already.
