Before long, the biting wind and heavy whooshing sounds ceased as Damar came to a stop and I finally raised my head.
We were at the entrance of the cave.
Finally.
"Are you okay?" Damar asked with concern in his tone and I nodded.
"Yeah, yeah I'm fine."
The ones who we should be worrying about are those two... I looked ahead at Fenric and Noah, who had taken charge of the troller's safety.
They worked hard.
"You can place me down now," I said but his grip hardened a bit before he let me down, as if reluctant to part with my warmth.
The ground here wasn't covered with much snow, and towards the entrance, too. Luckily, it wasn't slippery either.
"Good work, everyone," I said, walking towards them and, instead of waiting for them to transform back, I subconsciously buried my face in Fenric's soft and warm fur.
It was so warm that I wished I could stay like that for a moment longer but I had to compose myself.
