Jofre

"I'll assist you," Jofre nods at the samurai, speaking in fluent Gisen. "Let's hurry, this land is freezing."

Rak'al drops his pack and moves over to follow Bokaru, feeling the cold but for some reason not really caring. "I shall assist you.. Oh, yes, I forgot.. According to these tags. *waves the tags he found* I am named Rak'al."
 

[Bokaru, Jofre, Rak'al]

The three of you head down the midmorning shore. Much to your enjoyment the snow has stopped. However, The wind however lashes violently at your chapped faces. As you reach the shore you find the 6 or 7 soldiers laying lifeless as the water washes over them. It is not a pretty sight...some a missing eyes, eyes, genitals have been ripped off through clothing by canine teeth. You also see though several wolves also dead with gashes on there heads and belly, several witch look like they were killed by a curved blade.

As you reach the shore you find three crates. Inside on crate (and to your great luck) is a few drysets of winter clothes, anoth houses some food, the unpackaged though has gotten wet, and the third houses a tent and some small tools, like flint and steel and a long rope.

Jofre will help sort through the goods and hoist as much as he can. Knowing a little about the language of Bokaru's people, he will defer touching the bodies until he watches Bokaru's reactions.
 

Bokaru loads the remaining crates onto the sled. Once finished, he turns to the bodies of his men.

"Once we have the gear at the camp, I'd like to give my men some kind of funeral. The ground's too hard to bury them, so a pyre is appropriate." he faces his companions. "I do not wish to give you more tasks, but I would be grateful if you would help me get the bodies back to the camp and gather more firewood. I don't want to leave them here as food for the wolves."
 


Jofre

"Leaving them for wolf food would be dishonorable. I'll help collect wood. With the snow it's unlikely we'll have much of a chance to get dry wood from the forest. Maybe some of these crate...?" Jofre points with his falchion, clearly intent on chopping them up.
 

To the group by the fire

Well, welcome to Camp Damar everyone. I have to admit that I wasn't expecting company at all. This was supposed to be a trip to recover a lost family heirloom and I knew I could tell my tale to others, but now the tale has taken a twist and it seems would could add a chapter or two.

So what would you call your chapter in our tale?

"My chapter? I'm not sure I quite follow you. I'm just with you folk by happenstance. I'm merely here looking for something. Of course since my ship sailed away, it would seem fortuitous that we could all band toghether, but I hardly expect that anything we do would merit a book. Maybe a short story at best. My paragraph would be the section detailing how to be cold on a deserted island. " Marcus says as he reaches for more firewood to get a bit more heat.

Well, you are quite modest to be sure...but something brought you here...a boat, I know;) , but why did you come to the Arctic Isle at all? Seeking fortune? fame? cold toes>:p I know something exciting or at least compelling has brought each of us here. Perhaps it is just our fate to have some new aquaintances...I'm rambling, sorry. so where did you say you were from Marcus?
