Emelios Pidgington’s fingers were blue and numb. The frozen woman on his back did little to heat him up. The princess was suffering from extreme hypothermia. He had wrapped her in every piece of clothing he had but the robe on his back. There was a thick rime of sleety ice in his eyelashes making sight an exercise in futility. He plodded slowly, deliberately through the misty whiteness around him, feeling the last of his strength waning. He had to keep focus. He had to find shelter, or they would die in this wretched ice field, and that was not an option. Trudging in time with the princess’s weak breaths, Emelios spoke to himself to keep focused.
“So, I said to the Captain, we should just run, I am out of fire and acid spells and the smell is just awful. He didn’t go for it. The Captain bleeding from multiple wounds ran out gesticulating and screeching like some aboriginal shaman. I stared slack-jawed and amazed, mimicking the hulking troll. Its confused gape was positively comical, as it tried to decide whether to hurt the strange dancing creature or flee from it. His courageous bluff proved to me how cowardly I was being. A wizard always finds a way no matter the circumstances. So I came out of hiding throwing rocks and stones and shaking by booty for all I was worth. I can shimmy with the best of them, after all.”
He could feel her smile on his neck, and his strength redoubled. They would find shelter if it killed him.
