He nods, "I see.... well, you can rest here if you'd like. Make yourself at home. I happen to have two horses stabled in the back, I'll travel with you to Winterrun, if you'd like." "Thank you reyne. I think I'll stay overnight, let myself heal enough for the journey there. If you change your mind about getting back in the fight after leave, you of course know where to find me." "Yeah.." he finally cracks a small smile, "It's funny the gods fated us to meet like this, in the middle of nowhere, this far from home."

"Now, where's that bed?"

"Now, where's that bed?" He points to a cot in the corner of the room, "Make yourself at home, I'm going to go collect some more firewood." he says as he stands up.

He points to a cot in the corner of the room, "Make yourself at home, I'm going to go collect some more firewood." he says as he stands up. "Many thanks." He says, and goes to sleep in the cot. In the night, Marwin has a nightmare. In it, claws wrap around his ankles and pull him towards the bottom of the ocean. The claws pull him down to the ocean floor, face to face with Mathias Redfort. His mouth grins from ear to ear. Marwin finds himself unable to move. Redfort thrusts a dagger into his heart and twists, and Marwin can see his soul leave his body and float up towards the sky. He falls facedown into the sand, and minutes later musters the strength to push himself back up to his feet. He is now standing in the middle of Mercia, the city is engulfed in flames, the corpses of his people are piled in a massive body pile, at the top sits Redfort on a throne made of bones. He laughs and Marwin feels a pain in his wrists, he looks at his hands to see he has no hands, he looks back to Redfort and in place of the bodies is a unit of archers bearing the banner of King Sunderly. They nock their arrows and loose them towards Marwin. He feels the pain of a thousand arrows pierce his body and he falls to his knees, only he doesn't stop. He endlessly falls down, down into the darkness. Then he awakens. He gasps for breath, and can feel beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, he looks around the cabin and everything is normal, Reyne sits huddled over a cooking pot in the fireplace, stirring.

Marwin takes the bowl, tests the heat, and carefully gets it to his lips, and drinks it all. The warm juices run down his chin, it's some of the best he's had. He lets out a pleasured groan as it fills his mouth. He gulps it down with a labored swallow and looks up at Reyne. "Does it taste alright? It's been awhile..." he grunts.

I've got the horses saddled, and we can go whenever you are ready." he grabs a hooded fur cloak and throws it at Hanne,"I cut it down a bit to not drag when you walk, it should keep you warm on the ride."

"Thanks. I've got to be going." Marwin says, putting it on and then saddling up and leaving. He rides for awhile, the further north he gets, the more snow he sees. He pulls the hood down tight over his head and continues riding, he rides into a small snowstorm, and it's a bit tough to see through the whipping snow. Marwin shivers and looks around, on the distance he sees the towering walls and stone towers of Winterrun, or at least he assumes. Closeby however, he sees an orange glow emitting from a cliff mouth, and smoke slowly flowing out, suggesting there is a campfire inside the cave.
