Skadi gets restless staying in one place for too long, especially when there's so much to see. So, she heads to the Gallows Docks, planning to take a boat to the city and see what else there is to do other than scandalize lowlanders. At least, that's the plan until noting that the boats departing are full, so she'll have to wait. Pacing along the pier, she can't help but notice the sorrowful young lady in a more secluded part of it.

Back at home, any troubles and reasons for celebration were shared with the hold. 'Not my problem' was a mindset that didn't exist. She can't imagine anything else, and responds instinctively now, sitting down nearby and not giving a thought to how the sudden arrival of a 'barbarian' woman might go over.

"What ails you, lass?" Her voice is quieter and gentler than most would perhaps give her credit for, but she knows there are some times that require a lighter touch.
