Helga leads the group down the approved service trail as the snowfall thins. Jews supports Rosmira’s arm, while LingLing walks safely beside them beneath her red cap.
A towering snow wolf bursts through the lifting whiteout, blue markings blazing across his fur. He skids hard, scattering powder, then lowers his head when he sees Rosmira.
Leon Wolfe
Rosmira! I could not wait at the resort. Nayla and Kania are safe there, but I needed to know you and our child were safe.
Leon shifts close without crowding her, inspecting Rosmira’s face, coat, and stance before resting one careful paw near her abdomen. Relief softens his enormous posture.
Leon Wolfe
You are cold, and your hip still hurts. We are getting you inside, warm, and fed. Tell me what you need.
Leon Wolfe
And you must be LingLing. Thank you for sheltering her. Anyone who protects my family is welcome beside us.
LingLing accepts his welcome with a quiet nod, while Jews smiles beside Rosmira. Leon remains focused on her, waiting for her answer before moving down the trail.

“Leon notices another figure a red eyed boy from earlier. Thankx him with a simple nod and leon puts ros on his back carrying her the rest of the way in his wolf form.”
Leon’s blue-marked gaze lifts toward Rathem beside the shack route. Recognition crosses his wolfish face as Rathem lowers his board and steps aside.
Leon Wolfe
Thank you for helping find her.
Leon gives Rathem a simple, solemn nod, then turns back to Rosmira. Without rushing her, he lowers his broad shoulders and waits for her to settle securely.
Rathem
You are welcome, Wolf Lord. Get her somewhere warm before the mountain decides to make the story more dramatic.
Once Rosmira is safely on his back, Leon rises carefully. His giant frame steadies beneath her, divine markings glowing softly through the thinning snow.
Leon Wolfe
Hold on as comfortably as you can. I will carry you the rest of the way in.
Jews walks close at Rosmira’s side while LingLing follows with Helga and Rathem. Leon carries Rosmira down the approved trail, each deliberate step bringing them toward warmth, food, and the waiting family.
“After arriving to the resort Nayla sees leon big wolf and runs over to check on ros and leon. She of course scolds leon for running off like that. Kania is relieved and curious to how ros wondered off so suddenly.”
SUCCESS (Great Health, rolled +2)
Leon carries Rosmira through the resort gates as Helga signals the waiting staff. Warm lanterns glow across the snow, and the family rushes forward.
Nayla Iko
Leon! You giant, overprotective fool. You ran off into a blizzard without waiting for us. Are you hurt, and is Rosmira safe?
Nayla reaches them, checking Rosmira first, then pressing both hands against Leon’s thickly furred shoulder. Kania follows close behind, relief softening her worried face.
Leon Wolfe
We are safe. Rosmira was sheltered by LingLing, and I carried her once the trail opened. I should have trusted the rescue team and waited.
Kania Bloom
I am relieved you are both here. Rosmira, how did you disappear so suddenly? We lost sight of you almost immediately in that whiteout.
Jews introduces LingLing beside the group, while Helga guides everyone toward the heated lodge. Nayla keeps one protective hand near Rosmira, and Kania listens attentively.
Nayla Iko
No more wandering alone, Leon. And LingLing, thank you for protecting our family. Come inside with us. Food, warmth, and explanations can happen together.
