It's been two years since you've started living with your elder brother, Euric. He is a skilled swordsman. While you are capable of magic, he is capable of combat.

Your dark cloaked forms contrast the snow of the North. This is your home, but your brother has known a different one. Before you, he lived in the South. You've never been there before, but you feel that your brother has always missed living there.

The plain of the tundra is empty and vast, and at the horizon you can see the mountain range in the East. The clouded morning sun is in front of you. There is a city in before of the mountains, your brother told you, a city in which he could find customers.

The snow beneath your feet crunches. Every night it feels like it's getting ever colder. Winter is coming. You walk beside your brother, who seems to be in his own thoughts. Then it starts snowing.
