As the four head off from the encampment going further north than before they see it getting deeply cold with heavy snowstorm trudging through trying to stay warm and though she is trying to be calm but with her shivering she can feel the cold and Magun though cold looking keeps calm himself but Kurt with his hood up looks at everyone not feeling the cold

"How are you able to handle this frocking cold???" Raloran yells out

"Oh I'm use to the cold guess im more wolf than anything" Kurt says shrugging

"Well lets hope we don't get lost or attacked out here in the storm!" Raloran says

"Relax I'm sure Magun has his ear to the ground" Kurt says. After hours have passed they all start to notice a path that leads up to the snowy mountains and Magun looks down then kneels to some indents in the snow and looks at them carefully

"Tracks multiple types" Magun says "one has multiple legs,one is of multiple large wolves as cold as ice and the other is of some sort of  fiendish being but just as cold" he explains

"The multiple legs one it must be the prisoners we are looking for" Kurt says

"They must have shackled them in a line and led them through here" Raloran says

"Yeah what worries me is those fiendish footprints being cold as ice i never heard of a cold fiend before" Kurt says in thought

"We will have to be on our toes but we cannot back down" Lady says calmly and the group nods agreeing then they start to scale up the mountain path following the tracks. As they are further up the mountain Lady starts to hear a crackle of snow of sorts and quickly throws two daggers out that way and then draws her crossbow firing a bolt and they hear a hit of sorts and Kurt and the others see a fiendish female with pointed ears,skin as icey blue,hair a snow white,wearing leather armor with a wooden longbow with arrows and scimitars made of pure ice

"Holy shrock" Raloran says then he hops out of Cybels pack with his rifle at the ready then he sees a large wolf as pure white as snow with a icey blue mist its exhaling and Raloran fires off his shots hitting it but then a second wolf biting at Raloran from behind trying to knock him prone but was able to stay up

"Shit Raloran!" Kurt yells out them rushes at the wolf to keep him off Raloran but then another wolf appears from the snow biting at Ralorans back leg but Kurts plate armor was able to shake it off and counter swinging at the attacking wolf hitting it back,Magun rushes howling like the wolves he is fighting and claws at one wounded deeply and tries to rush away but falls dead to weak. Lady puts her crossbow away drawing her shortswords and rushes at a wolf getting behind it and stabs at its leg and body and the wolf falls dead as if she hit a vital organ of the wolf,Raloran then fires off shots the last shot sparking with arcane energy and as it hits blasts onto the wolf then Cybel finishes it off punching it away. The group start to calm down and as Lady pulls out her daggers and her crossbow bolt they all look at the blue humanoid that is close to the red soldiers a fiend but with blue skin instead of red hair as white as ice and instead of a spear and crossbow there wielding a longbow with icey acimitars and arrows Kurt also notices that this one has a pure white wolf head with icey blue eyes and as everyone isn't looking he swipes it off  the body as the body cracks and breaks like ice and its blood is as white as snow

"Way different than the ones Tarvon spoke of" Raloran says feeling his leg thats been bit

"Yeah you don't think he intentionally didn't tell us right?" Kurt says lookg at everyone

"For now we should seek shelter this snowstorm is gonna be our downfall" Lady says picking up the bow and Magun nods agreeing then after a bit of time they find a cave indent in the mountains wall
