Welcome to Gaia! ::

Relena horse jumped over a fallen log as its feet keep up the snow. Relena and Wanda had been traveling for two days now and were just entering the Spire. The mountain greeted them and gave them save passage. Normally the Spire killed most, being alive and all. Relena slowed pegasus to a walk as the snow became deeper to keep from tripping up.
"Were about three hours from camp."
She turned back in the saddle to look at Wanda. Her breathing could be seen in the air as she spoke.
"How you holding up. It looks like it's going to be a really cold tonight."

"Sadly it is only going to get cold."
They need to get to the camp and get a fire going before night. Even with the Spire permission its cold night could be just as deadly as it.

Soon the camp came into view and Pegasus hooves hit rock bring it from the leg deep snow. The horse hooves clattered against the risen platform and stopped at the mouth of the cave. Relena dismounted due to the cave opening being small.
"Come on...it is almost night."
She guided her horse in a few hundred feet, the temperature rising to a more doable level. At the back of the cave rested a catcomb that had been be craved out by water, a perfect resting place.
"Need to get a fire going for the horse. The travel through snow will hurt them if they don't get warm."
Relena dug into her pack and pulled out some lantern fuel and the lantern itself.
"I will set up the fire...can you get some wood?"

Relena turned to her sister and arched an eyebrow at her.
"Then gather wood from the forest. It is either that or we will have no fire tonight!"

Relena's and Wanda's hunt in the spire had been successful. They had killed four elks and sorted small game and made a makeshift sled to transport them.

They were now heading down the mountain and back to Carvahall and for some reason both horse were become restless. Relena patted her horse neck, "Easy girl..." No sooner did she speak did the ground beneath her horse fall away. The horse reared up as it jumped back onto solid ground, throwing her into the hole in the earth.
