The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

Naming Day

Ashe said curiously: “Tell me about your experience of going to Demacia this time.”

“I’ll tell you slowly when I go back tonight. First, tell me how you tamed this Herald Eagle.” Lothar’s heart was itching to see the Herald Eagle’s appearance, and he couldn’t help stretching out his hand to Touching the Herald Eagle, it pecked directly at Lothar. Fortunately, Lothar stopped quickly, otherwise a large piece of flesh would definitely be torn off.

“Don’t tease it, it doesn’t like to get close to people other than me.” Ashe touched the head of the Herald Eagle, and the eagle narrowed his eyes comfortably, which was completely different from his attitude towards Lothar, “Brown feather tribe member Not prosperous, their land leader is afraid that if I don’t accept his gift, it will be bad for their tribe in the future. I think he is really pitiful, so I agree to learn falcon taming from him.”

Ashe held the eagle in one hand and held Lothar’s ten fingers in the other. They chatted with him and walked side by side in the snow: “According to the tradition of the Brown Feather Tribe, the falconers need to go into the snow mountain to catch falcons by themselves, and then bring them home to boil.” eagle.”

“I know how to boil an eagle. I just keep staring at the eagle’s eyes without eating or drinking, so I don’t want it to sleep. I’ve tried it before.” Lothar said shyly, “I used to be on the mountain near Demacia. I met a big eagle with blue wings. I have seen that kind of eagle once. It is powerful, fast, and very smart. It took a lot of effort to catch it. It took almost half of the time. For months, I thought I had successfully tamed it, but it flew away in the blink of an eye.”

Ai Xi chuckled: “It turns out that you also have times when you are deflated.”

Lothar angrily kissed Ashe who was laughing at him hard on the face a few times.

“I was planning to go to the mountain to practice archery, but I didn’t expect to run into it.” Ai Xi raised her arms lightly, and the Herald Eagle flew to Ai Xi’s left shoulder. Ai Xi took out some dried meat from her leather pocket and fed it eat.

“Then you caught it and couldn’t tell. You were able to catch the Herald Eagle, and even I couldn’t do it.” Lothar praised.

Ashe smiled in embarrassment: “I didn’t catch it…it flew to me by itself…”

“Ha…” Lothar was dumbfounded.

“I was also surprised at first.” Ashe looked at Lothar with a silly face, “Then I thought it wanted to go with me, so I tried boiling the eagle, and it turned out…”

“result”

“I couldn’t help blinking after only three days.” Ai Xi said, “But it still didn’t fly away, but became very obedient to me…”

Lothar was completely speechless.

“Lothar” Ashe touched the boy who had become like a wood carving.

“People are more angry than people!” Lothar wanted to cry but had no tears. “Why can you get the Eagle of Prophecy without even having to boil the eagle? I didn’t get one with all my hard work.”

The Herald Eagle on Ashe’s arm cast a disdainful look at Lothar.

Ashe said embarrassingly: “How about I let the territory of the Brown Feather Tribe teach you that although you may not be able to tame the Herald Eagle, it is still no problem to tame an ordinary eagle.”

“No need.” Lothar waved his hand sadly, “It’s related to talent, no matter how much you learn, it’s useless, and I don’t want to work hard to train a common eagle, it won’t help much.”

Lotha looked around the Herald Eagle enviously: “This is a female eagle. It would be great if the male eagle I suffered from back then didn’t fly away, and I can make a match with it.”

The Herald Eagle flapped its wings towards Lothar, as if protesting against this proposal.

“Okay, Eagle Spirit, you can’t be rude to Lothar.” Ashe patted the Herald Eagle’s head, and the eagle settled down obediently.

“Did you name it Eagle Spirit?” Lothar wondered, “I heard that the Herald Eagle will share the sights it sees with its owner. Is it true?”

“Of course it’s true.” Ai Xi blew a whistling whistle with a strange tune, and the eagle spirit blinked, and Ai Xi’s eyes also burst out with the same beautiful blue brilliance as the eagle’s eyes.

“In this way, I can see what the eagle spirit sees.” Ashe waved her arms vigorously towards the sky, and the eagle spirit roared and rushed to the sky. “That’s how I found out that you and Olaf are back.”

Losa looked at the Herald Eagle flying up and down in the clouds, and said with emotion: “Now I believe more and more that you are really the reincarnation of Avarosa.”

Ashe hugged Lothar’s arm and leaned her head on his shoulder: “Whether I am or not, I am your blood ally, your wife.”

“Miss me”

“A little bit.”

“Just a little bit”

“I miss you very much, okay?”

“That’s about the same.” Lothar kissed Ashe again, and found that he was still half a head shorter than Ashe, and immediately said distressedly, “Why did you grow taller again? I thought I would be as tall as you this time when I came back. ”

“I have to wait two winters before I officially become an adult. How could I not grow up all the time. Don’t worry, you are a boy, and you will definitely be taller than me in the future.” Ai Xi comforted, suddenlySuddenly remembered something, “Lothar, when is your name day?”

“have no idea.”

“I don’t know.” Ashe was taken aback, “How could you not know? Who gave you a name?”

“I don’t know.” Lothar shrugged. “Everyone has called me that since I can remember. Maybe they called it casually. It gradually became my name.”

“How could this be…” Ashe said in confusion, “I always thought that the name Lothar was given to you by your mother…”

“I don’t think Glenna would bother to name a wolf cub like me.” Lothar thought of the woman who only wanted to find the throne of Avarosa.

Ashe looked at her beloved boy in a daze. She couldn’t imagine what it would be like to be raised by wolves. Without any family members, without any blood support, how can Lothar still live so free and happy.

“Why did you suddenly ask about my name day?” Lothar’s words interrupted Ashe’s thinking.

“Because…” Ashe blushed, “We have already made a vow, and my name day is coming soon, I want to spend it with you.”

“Okay.” Lothar said bluntly, “What gift do you want? I heard from people in the coastal tribes that the deep-sea fragrance in the intestines of the fragrant whale is very popular with girls, and the fragrance made from it is very delicious. ”

“The things in the intestines… forget it.” Ashe directly refused, “I just want you to accompany me.”

“Silly girl.” Lothar and Ashe pressed their foreheads together, “I’m back, and I will definitely be with you all the time. I still want to work hard to create a baby.”

Ashe closed her eyes blissfully, enjoying the tenderness of the reunion: “Well… how about… just arrange your name day and mine on the same day, how about spending it together?”

Lothar rolled his eyes slyly: “Then what gift are you going to give me?”

Ashe felt a hand brush dishonestly across her thigh, press on her most tender skin, and began to drill into her skirt.

She bit Lothar’s lips lightly, wiped off the snowflakes on his head, and exuded a girlish fragrance all over her body: “I give you me, are you satisfied?”

The Freljord people don’t have birthdays, or in other words, their birthdays are their name days.

The reason is simple. The natural environment of the Freljord is very harsh. The temperature does not rise above minus 15 degrees Celsius for a whole year, and the food source is very unstable. Various factors have led to the extremely low survival rate of newborns in the Freljord. Even if many babies are not born with dystocia, they will die due to lack of insulation and nutritional supply.

The Freljord people face the threat of death as soon as they are born, so for them, birthdays are not something to celebrate. After all, dying just after birth is not much different from not being born. Only when the baby survives to the name day is it considered a real birth for them.
