The venemous look she threw at the dwarf bounced right off his lifeless skin, but she took a moment to tell Jareena she could help with the horse later. Sight unseen, a Moment Yearning, her spiritual companion, drifted over to the horse and spoke to it quietly and reassuringly of a plain verdant with lush grass.</div> <div> </div> <div>Icthya felt incredibly uncomfortable when the reindeer-woman came to the spot she had found. Keeping the womanīs wolf between them, she snatched at a fly and fed it to the mudskipper. "Tell me of the Nameless Man", she burbled as one
does when speaking to fish, utterly unaware that the same was approaching rapidly...</div> <div> </div> <div>OOC: Icthya can help with sicko animals but is busy. Her centaur sidekick is less busy. I know that reindeer eat moss and donīt strip the bark off trees like other, more evil, deer do, but I reckon Icthya is still going to be very wary of a deer-person. I am going to assume that Icthya doesnīt know the Nameless Man is approaching (more fun that way).</div> <div> </div> <div>Sam.</div>
