The sun had just risen above the east forest when he walked around and inspected the assortment of bodies. Twelve wolves, two naked headless bodies and one horse lay dead in the glittering snow. He came closer to the mound that was obviously a horse and started to unstrap the saddle to give to the girl. When the saddle slipped from its back, he stood stunned, as beneath the snow, the horse’s colour was dapple-grey.
Vanor awoke from the nightmare of the previous fight, crying for Freckles, until she realised she was not in the snow but rather in a warm bed with a girl cleaning her wounds. It was a small room and the only light was a flickering candle next to the bed. The pre-dawn light could be seen through the window but it had not reached the room yet and she watched a bird land on the window, trilling an early morning call. The girl washed the cloth in a basin again and turned back to Vanor.
