The creature hadn’t meant to cause him pain, truly, and it watched the play of emotions with sympathy it could not express. It was difficult to show any emotion for the being, when it crumbled and reformed with movement and had glacial features and coals for eyes. But its snow-formed head nodded, almost entirely falling apart as it did so but quickly reforming with new snow and that multitude of voices responded softly - each syllable a caress of wind and falling snow. “We think that is good.”

It appreciated Ashamin’s honesty and while it were not glad for the pain, it knew it was better to feel it. How terrible it would have been, if leaving herd and home had meant little after so long! “It is better for it to mean so much to you, than nothing at all, is it not? Otherwise it would not have been brave for you to leave. Otherwise what you are building now would mean less.” Despite the chill in the air, the words were kind - almost even warm, though the creature would not appreciate a heat-related description.

With a tilt of its head, a gust of wind blew into their Frostfall scene - the flakes carrying with them something that should look very familiar and laying it at the painted stallion’s hooves.

It was Ashamin’s sarong, stolen (borrowed) from the pile of items he had left behind and offered to him now as though it was a gift. Visually, the cloth had not changed but when he wore it Ashamin would discover that it was no longer the simple piece it had once been. “We hope this will help keep the chill from your body and your heart.” The voices offered as the wind settled. The snow was falling sparser now, the enchantment of the moment coming to its end around them. “Learn from the past, Ashamin, but do not mourn it.”
