Frieren: We're lost.

Sozin: T_T I know.

Frieren: And what's worse is we're lost before we even entered the Schwer mountains. How pitiful.

Fern tried to wake Stark up.

Fern: Mister Stark you need to wake up. Sleeping will kill you.

Stark: (Groan) You really expect me to believe the Jumbo-berry special has always been this small.

Sozin: Why yes, it is smaller than your brain, AHA!

Fern: (Pout)

Sozin: Sorry...

Fern: What should we do?

Frieren: Hm, the strength of the wind takes any sort of magical transportation out of question. He'd be blown acorss the sky.

Sozin snaps his fingers and his hands appeared grabbing Stark. And the group moves forward.

Frieren: There should be an emergency shelter at the foot of the mountains.

Fern: And you know this from 80 years ago? Are you sure it'll even be there?

After a while of walking they make it to the cabin.

Frieren: Excellent. It looks to me like it's been regularly maintained.

They walked to the cabin and saw it was being taken care of.

Fern: Somebody must've gotten here before us. We don't know if they're friend or foe.

Frieren: At this point who cares.

Frieren opens the door. I'd take either over freezing to death.

They walked in to see a man doing squats.

Frieren:.....

Sozin:....

???: Yup! Heating up! I'm warmer already!

He then looked at the group.

Frieren: Pardon the intrusion.

Fern pulls Frieren back.

Fern: Not a chance we need to keep looking.

Frieren: Huh? Why not?

Fern: Because there's a pervert in there.

Sozin: Fern, I'd kill him if he tired to touch you two.

???: Pervert you say? That's not nice. Are you an elf?

Frieren looked shocked Sozin saw this and got a bit suspicious. Inside the house the elf was fixing the lights.

???: It's been about 300 years since I met another one of my kind. I thought the last of the elves had already died out.

Frieren: I thought so too.

???: Thank you miss. I appreciate the fire.

Fern: Sure.

Fern was wrapping Stark up.

???: I'm happy it was you mages who knocked on my door. The goddess must have lead you Straight to me. This blizzard put out my coals. The hut was a great find, but freezing nonetheless. I was doing squats to stay alive.

Frieren: I understand.

Fern: Well I suppose that makes one of us.

???: Any ways I'm Kraft the monk.

Frieren: I'm Frieren the mage.

Sozin: Sozin the undead.

Fern: I'm Fern and I'm also a mage.
