Sah

Sah eyed the ice around him and Lilly. After all that Halo had been dealing with it had seemed like a good idea to spruce things up a bit and try to cheer up the residents. Decorating the doors of shops had seemed like a good start but as the Abandoned glacned at the tundra, he found himself unsure where to start. Within the expanse of ice very few decorations could be found. Maybe a few arctic flowers here and there that he could pick but much else.

There was a brush against his mind, a glimmer of an image. Antlers carved with pictures and stories, just like what he had on his door. Sah reached down and rubbed Lilly's ears. "Sounds look a good plan, pup."

Grabbing his bag, Sah decided to get hunting. Hopefully they'd find enough moose or caribou around to get what they needed. "Ready Lilly?"

A frozen wasteland, blank and grey. This was Sylvia's home. This was her natural environment. She sniffed deeply. Her bow was fine, adequate. However she was going to be leaving Halo. She needed an antler bow. She heard how strong well made ones were, had even seen each of her brothers' from their Sila.

A gust of wind blew against the rock and Sylvia released a breath she'd subconsciously held. Hunter, she was a Hunter. Her eyes tracked the ground and found the markings she was searching for. "Perfect," she mumbled to herself. She began to move before she saw the other movement. She paused and knocked an arrow and aimed before realizing the shadowy movement was a person and animal."

Sah

Sah heard the crackle of ice behind him and whipped around, relaxing when he realized it was a fellow hunter. Her appearance and bow gave it away, though he didn't recognize her. Still, he brought a finger to his lips in a shushing motion and pointed to a ridge just to his left. Just beyond the icy embankment was a herd of caribou.

"Feel like tag teaming? Lilly can swing around and startle them towards us, and we can pick them off from there." The Outlander whispered quietly; his voice barely audible over the wind as he pulled out a few daggers that were slim enough to throw. Not as great as throwing knives but they'd do.

If Lilly startled the herd and made them run parallel to their current position, the two hunters would have an easy means of picking them off from a distance.

Sylvia relaxed the tension on her bow as the man whipped around and relaxed. As he brought a finger to his lips Sylvia nodded and quickly, as well as quietly moved closer. She followed the finger to the herd and then back to the man as he spoke in a whisper.

She smiled under her layers, one of which hid her lips but Sylvia's smiles always reached her eyes. Two hunters were always better than one, though she did quickly look down at the daggers in curiosity before nodding in agreement to his question. How many could he take out with those? She could injure a few and out right kill at least one. Still she pulled readied herself and in a whispered grin spoke, "I'm ready when you are boyo."

Sah

Sah raised a brow at the nickname, "Boyo? Call me Sah."  His eyes returned to the herd as Lilly began to get into position. Swinging around the back of the herd, the wolf then let out a series of sharp barks and snarls, sending the herd into a panic. The caribou began to flee parallel to the two hunter's hiding spot, just as planned.

Eyes locking onto his targets, the Abandoned let two daggers fly in quick succession. Between Lilly's distraction, Noah's prior lesson on knife throwing, and his own magic, Sah fared well. His telekinesis kept the two daggers on track and increased the force and speed with which they struck the caribou.  

The first dagger sunk deeply into the chest of a doe and brought her crashing down. The second pierced the neck of a stag and sent him tumbling. Once the herd began to clear out of the area in their flight and Sylvia had her turn, Sah would then approach and finish them off should they still be alive.

Sylvia nodded as he told her to call him Sah. "Sylvia," she smiled behind the face mask as she took a knee beside him. She waited and watched the wolf companion snap and snarl and bark, amused by the tactic as she'd watched her brothers do similar so many times before.

She kept an eye on the man beside her as he threw his daggers and was surprised at how accurate they were, as well as the force. She nodded approvingly as she let three arrows fly quickly to take only her target out. The first flew high and missed completely. The second and third however were adjusted taking down the one she'd aimed for.

It fell and slid over the snow and ice tripping at least one other before the caribou began jumping over it. She let out the breathe she'd been holding as she'd knocked and fired, a trick that helped her steady her hand she'd found and looked over to Sah while pulling out her hunting knife, "Nice aim Sah. Ready to finish the job?"

Sah

Sah watched as Sylvia took down here own target, "Good job." Climbing the ridge, he followed her over to their prey. The stag was dead, but the doe was still struggling. The Abandoned's eyes softened with sympathy, and he efficiently ended her pain, giving both of his kills a gentle pat and a quiet, "Thank you." Respect for the creature's life and acknowledgement of the lives its sacrifice would help sustain with its meat and fur.

Respects paid, Sah gave Sylvia a nod, "Sounds good. It might be best if we prep the meat here and lug what we can back. The rest we can leave for our circling friends." He chuckled slightly, nodding to the circling crows and vultures who had already arrived on the scene.

Sylvia's eyes flashed as they approached the animals. Her nostrils flared as she looked to the doe that was still alive. There wasn't sympathy in her eyes but a wild sort of hunger. She crouched by her own kill, closing its eyes and whispering, "Your spirit is now free." Her eyes darted back to the doe and Sah as he respectfully ended the suffering. She nodded in approval. He was a good hunter. She knew a few who took glory in the suffering and it wasn't her way. She was glad to see it wasn't Sah's either.

"I agree. We should move quickly before dark. Otherwise we'll have more than the scavengers to deal with." A dangerous proposition though it did excite her. She quickly and efficiently took the antlers from the kill, then began skinning and carving what she needed. She'd use the pelt to help wrap the mean and some of the stronger bones with her.

She kept an eye out for some of the bigger predators that could be around while she worked, still ensuring that the three would be safe. "How long have you been hunting friend?" She asked, trying to pass the time not in silence but in companionship.

Sah

Sah noticed the hunger in Sylvia's nod and the grin he sent her was feral, "Eager, are we?" It was interesting to see another who shared his thrill of the hunt. Or perhaps just a love of caribou meat. Both were valid to the Outlander. Some habits and inclinations had followed him to Caido for sure. One a hunter, always a hunter. Something like that.

The Abandoned swiftly tended to and prepped his own kills, moving efficiently so as not to waste time. He tossed Lilly a few choice organs as he worked, gathering what meat, bones, and antlers he desired. The rest he'd leave to nature.

Sylvia's question grasped his attention and he glanced at the woman. "Ever since I was old enough to do so." He tilted his head in thought, "I think I was two when my mom started me out on rabbits?" He remembered the first time he'd tried to hunt. Tripping over still too-big paws but so eager to do his best. It'd been fun, even if he hadn't caught anything his first few times.

"What about you?" Sah asked his companion curiously.
