Nothing would be quite the same as having the rest of the Boneflayers with him, and though he didn't mind going out on his own, hunting was often better with company. Especially if you were hunting bears because the cold here had made them hungry and that meant they were bolder than they any real right to be.

Having a mage fight against a bear with him had already paid off so he only shrugged as he picked up the trail he'd found earlier the day before, the wild animals having enough sense to stay clear of Red Templars.

"So, I like to know who I'll be fighting with - Asher Hardie, captain of the Boneflayers. I can tell you're a mage but name, where you're from, any bear or hunting related experience?"
