Whilst others were in need of flames or moonlight to illuminate the darkened grassland plains, Þjóstúlfr was as ever, more than capable of seeing his surroundings in the darkness. The moon's rays that did shine down, caused his own unusual green eyes to glint oddly, a trait generally not exhibited by normal humans. Currently in human form, in partial plate and lamellar armour padded with fur, he chose to ride atop a horse, the creature only around eight years old, but already used to Þjóstúlfr, and therefore calm despite the fact that it was around a decidedly dangerous wolf in human form. Many creatures, such as dogs, livestock, and the like, often tended to be rather wary around Þjóstúlfr even in his current form, sometimes attacking, sometimes fleeing, or alternatively sticking to careful observation.<br/><br/>A faint breeze came in from distant lands, the breeze making the grey hair that belied his youthful countenance, move a little, as well as carrying to the Jötunn, the scents of many a living thing to his sharp nose. That, of course, included the scent of multiple humans, including one whose smell seemed mingled with that of Elf-kind, though as he advanced, his eyes had a little more trouble locking on to the exact location of that one.<br/><br/>Curious as to their nature, and what an encounter with these mortals might bring about, Þjóstúlfr deigned to investigate further. Even if any of the humans were hostile, he was confident enough in his own capabilities. The wolf had been hunting, or learning to, since he was a pup, in a time long forgotten. Unlike humans, he did not pay particular attention to the passing of many years, and could not accurately estimate his own age, even if he could remember the entirety of that which he had experienced so far. Þjóstúlfr knew that many human lives had been and gone since he was a newborn, many places now naught but dust, but that was probably as far as his concept of it went. Refocusing his thoughts, the wolf turned them to the humans, and one mysterious half-human, that would soon come to notice his encroaching presence upon horseback...
