The sudden bright tang of peppermint bark did not rouse the bear's stomach, but where there was fresh peppermint bark, there was usually something with meaty bits prying away at it.
Lumbering forward on surprisingly silent legs, the bear shuffled into view of the alchemist. For a moment given its poor eyesight and the fact they were wrapped up in mostly earthen colours, he wasn't sure what he was looking at. But that shock of red hair? Even if it was just a squirrel, he wouldn't complain.
Rising up on his hind legs (all 3ish of them, the fourth sort of dangled weirdly), it placed a massive paw on a tree, sniffing the air. Bigger than squirrel it thought to itself hungrily, before dropping back to the ground, and charging at the duo.
