Ineika Ice-Bear-Dances

[walpurgisknight]

Hello.

I am Ineika, I am from the Sea of Frozen Ice to the far north.

I am not used to these lands. The lodges of chiefs are the largest buildings I saw as a young girl. Here, you have stone castles all over the place. Your taverns stink of bad smoke however. It makes it hard to tell where you're stepping when your eyes are watering.

The weather here is very nice, and there is so much sunshine. It makes me happy! *boisterous laugh* I was displaced when we ran a counter-raid on a horde of orcs to the south of us. It was my first battle, my proving as a warrior. I did not want to be a wife. I was knocked out by something and woke up in a canoe with an elf going through my pockets. So I killed the thief and took his swag. Ho! Ho! Ho!

I traveled down the stream and ran into rapids and eventually knocked my head on a rock going over a waterfall that appeared too suddenly. I'm used to ice, hah?!?

I came to because a bear was pawing me to see if I was edible. I guess it had dragged me out of the water because the mail I was wearing was too heavy for me to be on the shore like that. I played dead until it snuffed and ambled away.

The canoe was wrecked, so I wandered in search of a road, and found one. I am passable with surviving the wilds - though I am used to the snow and the sea! A caravan came by and agreed to take me on as a guard. The trip was uneventful, but long. They went in the wrong direction, too. I ended up in some farm lands. Now I am here!!!
