[It's been a crazy few months, but things seem to be finally settling back to normal. At least, as normal as the Drabwurld goes. Sometimes she has to remind herself that this is her world now, weirdness and all, but she wouldn't have it any other way. Luckily, her last gift from Solais is still active so she didn't remain lost for very long, teleporting herself to Leathann, to home.
But there are numerous, countless others that she needs to check up on. Merida sits with a hound or two by her side, the only new thing about her being the braids on either side of her head, sitting in her hair. War braids, that her mother had carefully interwoven into her hair as a last gift. She smiles, though it falters a little, and the choker around her throat feels a little tighter, hiding most of the scar that goes up to her jaw.]
This is Merida.
[Duh.]
It's been a while since I've spoken to some of you. [She remembers her last post and feels a little lump in her throat.] I'm not even sure how many I know are still here. Well, here being a relative term since it seems there's even more courts.
[One of the pups whines and nudges her side, and she reaches to give him rubs.]
I know that many of you might be adjusting, but I wanted to offer myself, should you need help. I'm shardless, so I'm not barred by whatever alliance your court holds. Angus an' I can fly, an' I can teleport myself, so transportation isn't a problem. Anythin' you need - trackin', magic, archery - I can do. [Her lips quirk faintly.] I've been told I'm a good teacher.
[Merida reaches for her locket, then pauses.]
Shuck knows we've been given another chance. I don't intend to waste it.
[The feed ends.]

[And it's murmured, almost to himself. Jack's eyes are a little brighter.]
There are people where I am, ones who came back with us. None of us know how to hunt, at least not the way we're going to need to. If your offer extends to the far and frozen North, I'll make sure that the favor is returned.

[She had leopard seal teeth marks on her arm to prove it. Merida tilts her head in consideration.]
If you're to th' Far North, you're also goin' to need to learn how to utilize every part of th' animal. Winter months are goin' to be pretty harsh on your lot, so you'll need to learn how to skin an' make cloaks an' th' like from their pelts.

[Jack's already looked to his own wardrobe and found it lacking. Ice was not the element he was guarding against.]

[She shakes her head.]
But I'll help. As much as I can with that anyway. I'm not much of a tailor when it comes to fur, but I can show ye how to skin an animal without damagin' th' pelt.

[Pour it on a little thicker, Jack.]
