Come With Us

“I hunt,” Andrev said warily.

Rastaban seemed oblivious to the way Andrev was doing his best to radiate hostility; the reindeer noticed and began stamping their hooves and snorting.

Rastaban clapped Andrev on the shoulder. “We’re glad we found you. Come along and meet the rest of the Wanderers.” And Rastaban spun on his heel.

Kana laughed sweetly and rose up in one smooth, graceful motion. Then she offered a hand to Andrev. “Come with us?”

Andrev pushed himself to his feet, careful not to touch her. “Go on, then.”

She smiled at him and turned, skipped across the grass.
