"The whistling? It's but an old tune I remember hearing in my younger years. The north has a way with making one reminisce their past~" The dark beastkin mused in a low hum, seemingly remaining lost in thought. His crimson eye only briefly regarded the adventurer before promptly returning to the trance while sharping the short blade. 

"There is meaning and wisdom to be found in a blizzard, only if you reach out and hear it. A place to gather my thoughts and recollect lost memories of my past..." Light remorse painted his voice while sharp metallic tips of his gauntlets thoroughly grinded through the tempered blade, confirming one last time it was sharpened enough before placing it back on his cloak. "Though for some that are bold enough to brave past blizzards and beaten path, treasure more important than past memories might await..."

``Heh,i find it better not listening to much to the past,more time than not if you go too deep you'd either end up cringing or find remorse in it without gaining a lot from it,better just not looking back at the past or trying to predict the future in most situation.``

*Would say williard, after having listen to what the beastkin had said and how he said it, after that he would start to mess around whit his lute, trying to make it's music fit the current mood, while still trying to make it keep some sort of calm so the beastkin wouldn't start to freak out about having one of his moment of calm interrupted by a random person that can't leave right now because of the risk that would cause the blizzard.*

"Living for the moment huh? I can see why you would, I wasn't any different a while ago. Though this place allows me to reflect on past as well... And mistakes I should not repeat again."

The canine beast sighed, regarding the young man, then the growing blizzard outside. Listening to a lute's tune didn't feel too bad right now, and perhaps they could share one more story or two by the time weather shimmers down. "Take a seat, neither of us is making it far on that snowstorm."
