Ted laid on his stomach, head over his forearms. He let out a deep sigh. He was bored. And a little drunk. He glanced over the the half full bottle of wine that was stuck in the snow. He edged his paw over to it and tipped some of the contents into his mouth. He let it sit for a second, savoring the flavor. Then he swallowed it down and rested his head back on his forearms. He slept briefly. The sun hadn't moved very far in the sky. He finally found himself getting up and trudging around in the snow aimlessly. He had no real destination at this point. He stopped for a swig from the wine bottle every once in a while but that was all. Other than that, he kept moving. Edited by Ted, Jul 31 2008, 05:56 AM.

Ice Queen, all she ever wanted was someone to love.

OOC: Sorry it took so long, I was at a big horse show in Illinois. What was she even doing wandering about like this all on her own. It always seemed she lost her friends and ended up completely deserted in the middle of some forsaken hole in the ground. Sure it was not all that bad, it was actually quite nice here and it was her element but still. She had to leave the whole caravan only because her only friend in it was taken. One day she would find the person who kidnapped her and freeze him. Snow started falling down and a smile crossed her face. She loved the snow, it was so wonderful. Stretching out her arms she spun as the flakes landed on her black hair. It did not take long before she snapped out of her moment of fun and returned to the real world. Still the moment she opened her eyes again she could make out a large white thing moving in the distance. Finally someone else, she had been wandering for so long and she needed someone to talk to. Running for the moving white mass she yelled out in as loud a voice that she could muster, "Hello, hey you." |

His head snapped up. A voice. He turned slightly, scanning over the snow fallen fields. It didn't take long to see the object in question. Something in the distance, like black on white, the figure stood out. He couldn't hear what it had said. For all he knew, he was about to be attacked, by whatever this person happened to be. He tensed up his shoulder and hind flanks and took to a slow and steady trot. He surprised himself. He usually didn't rush into situation like this. As he got closer, his fear started dissipating the more and more of the figure he saw. Human. Female. Not very tall. Not armed. Hopefully no magic. No scars along her face. Black hair speckled with snow. The little things he noticed. He kept on walking, keeping a wary eye on her. She could have a concealed weapon. Normally he wouldn't be like this, but the likely hood of someone finding him in the great expanse of land around the mountain were almost null. He kept his distance from her, circling around her, sniffing the air. He knew a certain smell humans made when they got hostile, a pheromone they released. He caught no smell of it. It got him down to a relaxed state. He went in front of her and looked her over, just a precaution. He had heard somewhere that his kind's meat sold well. "Hello stranger." |

Sure she was half elf and could use magic. many things she could except, but a talking bear, that was completely new to her. Sure when she called out she had no idea what would be coming at her, but a bear, that could talk, how odd. "Your a bear?" She blurted out confused by this strange creature. Was it actually a bear or a shape shifter, and if it was a normal bear then what made him talk, magic? Everything in Avalon always seemed to surprise her which was a big breakthrough in her world. As a child her parents had brought her here often to visit her mothers family, but even then not many things stood out as unnatural. Sure the elves did a little, but it was not as odd as talking animals which she had not gotten use to yet. "How can you talk, I mean...What are you?" She did hope that she was not being terribly rude or anything. She did hate coming off as rude since after all back in her country she was nobility. Lightly brushing her fingers through her hair she did her best to repair what the wind had done to it. The few tangles slid lose and the strands of hair went to their natural places riding her of any unkept appearance she may have previously had. |

It was one of those moments. If he could raise and eyebrow, he would have. Was she not from Avalon or something? He looked her over. She did look it. Did people from other lands look different? "What else would I be? A bird?" He couldn't help the wise crack. He normally didn't do sarcasm, but for some reason, he saw now as an opportune moment. He gave a hearty chuckle, or what would be a human chuckle but all that came out of his throat were a series of friendly growls. Her next series of questions were almost as funny as the first one. "Of course I can talk, and didn't I just tell you? I am a bear." She fiddled with her hair, for God knows what reason. She looked fine to him. But then again, he wasn't the best judge of human looks. He looked her over one more time, trying to remember what a village male had told him about identifying a pretty human. He thought about it and then gave up. Simple way then. "Not to intrude, but are you pretty?" He had asked a woman before and gotten a smack on the nose and called a cretin. He didn't mean she wasn't, but what better way for a strait answer than from the source? |

Well he truly was a bear, and one who could talk. Perhaps this was common in Avalon, but she thought she would have come across an animal like this before now. Perhaps it was something rare as well. Now she realized how silly her questions had been. He must have heard them a thousand times before. Even she would be annoyed if asked stupid things like that. "Not to intrude, but are you pretty?" That question took her by surprise, no one really ever asked if she was pretty, they usually just stated it. The vain side of her almost blurted out something horribly rude and well naturally vain. She did love the way she looked, she just never was all that happy about it. It seemed beauty was more trouble then it was worth. "Well many people say I am very beautiful, so I suppose I am pretty." She tried to seem as polite as possible, especially since she may have offended the bear with her own questions. She looked at the bear realizing how majestic it appeared, like in the story with the princess and the polar bear. He reminded her of the story, mostly because it was one about a bear, also she was not sure if all polar bears looked the same, but he did look a lot like the one in the pictures. |

Ok, that cleared that up, not that he really needed to know. His curiosity just got the better of him as usual, especially when it came to humans. They were a queer species, constantly fighting amongst themselves, ruining each others lives over land and wealth. Rape and murder, pillaging and raiding, theft and con. He had never really understood why humans just didn't pull together and unite under one banner, keep each other alive and help each other out. He looked at her one more time. He was quite sure she wasn't out to kill him. If she was, she would have already done so, or at least attempted. He sat down on his rear, making a soft thump as his half ton body landed on the soft snow. He sunk slightly, but not far. An inch. His rear was a little chilly from it, but not uncomfortably. And now to the topic of why in God's name she found herself all the way out in this snow field. "So, what are you doing out here?" |

She looked around after he had asked the question, what had she been doing here? She had been feed up with her uncle trying to get her, all his men, oh yes they hated the cold as well were she loved it. "I was board, and besides I am a sorceress and my element happened to be ice. I love the snow, I love the cold, it's home to me." She seemed to trail off slightly at the end of her sentence. Snow fell onto her head, her hood had fallen down when she pulled the spinning thing. All of this was so childish, it was truly getting annoying. Then again what else had she to do? "Besides my uncle is hunting me down and this is the only place I think he would not want to go. He hates the cold...and the snow." Why was that man not dead yet, she had hoped that some creature would have gotten him by now. Still he was now the least of her worries, now there was that evil...that thing that called to her in her sleep. The one that would wake her every night and make her go to a window, every night she saw that...shadow it seemed cross the land. She was so afraid of whatever it was that was trying to take her over. |

Ok, so that told him so much. She was a magic user. Very quaint about it though. She didn't divulge enough information to make the proclamation of any use to him. He could sense an increase in aggravation. At simple questions? It was easy enough to answer and he didn't care if she had magic. If she attacked him at this range, very little would be left to find. And she gave him another interesting piece of information. She was being hunted. So rather her being the distraction for hunters to get a bear to eat, she was running from a tyrant of an uncle who hated the cold and everything that came along with it. So she had a nice reason for being out in the cold, two of them, dealing with herself and others. "Why does he seek you life, young human?" What could this woman have done to piss him off? Kill a guard? Steal money? Refuse him her virtue? |

She lowered her head, her face tingled not from the cold but from the image of his face in her mind. The thought of what he would do to her if he could put his hands on her. Rubbing her shoulder she could feel that mental burn on her skin, she was not actually hurt, but the thought of his hand on her bare flesh made it burn just as badly. "I am married to his son, I am Countess of a far off land, across the ocean in a warmer place. Without me he can claim no power, and besides I have something he needs greatly. If he is to take power without me being in my land, then he needs my flesh and blood, something I refused to give his son. He needs a child from me, that is why I left home. I can not have a child with his son. They would kill me once they didn't need me, and to let that man care for any child of mine makes me sick." Not even her husband could take command of her land without proof of her death, and in his case her uncle could be considering that path. Still he loved her...no he had lust for her, and most likely would not have it end that way. He had probably figured that if he cut his son from the equation that he could simply take power for himself, and besides he had always secretly though about it to begin with. |
