This was what Torvi had been doing for the past ten minutes, following the same pattern. Nock an arrow. Pull the bowstring back. Take aim. Breathe. Release. Over and over again she kept this up as she tried to stay far enough back from the fighting for the bow to be useful. Not far from her she caught sight of her sister, Siiri, let out a battle cry as she flung herself at another enemy. The men of the village hadn’t planned for the attack and so they left on a raid, leaving the women to defend their little village. Thankfully Torvi had the smarts to realize that if they were starving then there was a chance that other villages were as well. She hadn’t planned for them to be attacked, of course, but she made sure the people were ready in case there was a raid on their village. The women were the prominent fighters at the moment, however young boys joined in along with the elderly men. They all were willing to fight and die for their village. Her plan to keep far enough away from the fighting had been going well up until this point. The raid group was breaking through their lines and getting closer and closer to her. She released another arrow as something began to pull her attention. Near her a large portal began opening up and she stared at it in awe and horror. She dropped her guard and someone took advantage of this, rushing at her with an axe. “Torvi!” She heard her sister cry and she whipped her head back around just in time to see Siiri jump in front of her. The axe came down hard and everything seemed to happen in slow motion at that point. She watched as the axe embedded itself into her sister’s chest while her sister ran the man through with her sword. Torvi let out a scream before she was sucked through the portal. When she opened her eyes she was in a forest and it was dark. It wasn’t dark just moments ago, was it? That’s when the scene came rushing back to her once more and she shoved herself upwards as she looked around frantically. [color=7ea7d8]”Siiri!”[/color] She screamed as her eyes scanned the area. [color=7ea7d8][i]Where are you dammit…[/i][/color] She thought to herself as she began to move. She had to find her, she had to be okay. Moments later she saw a body on the forest floor and she rushed over to it. As she got closer she saw the familiar form of her sister and she ran full speed to her side. She dropped down and looked Siiri over, seeing the gruesome gash in her chest. She also watched as her chest rose and fell in shallow breaths. “Torvi…” Siiri spoke her name in a weak, gurgling noise. The sound tore at Torvi’s heart and she looked to her sister’s face. “Where are we Torvi?...This isn’t home…” Siiri asked, a hint of fear in her voice and it caused tears to come to Torvi’s eyes. She moved to place her sister’s head in her lap as she began to gently stroke her hair. [color=7ea7d8]”It’s okay Siiri, everything is going to be okay. Freyja must have chosen you.”[/color] Torvi manage to say, giving her sister a soft smile as tears fell down her cheeks. [color=7ea7d8]”You’re in Fólkvangr now, you’re going to dine with Freyja and her court after you get some rest.”[/color] She told her sister, trying to fill her last thoughts with happy ones as Torvi felt herself crumbling. “It hurts, Torvi. It hurts so bad.” Siiri began to complain and move around restlessly. Torvi just hushed her and bid her to lie still as she continued to stroke her face and hair. She did quiet after a few moments and Torvi knew it wouldn’t be long now. “I’m so tired Torvi...sing me a song please...like when we were kids...sing me a song so I can sleep…” She asked and a sob broke from Torvi as she nodded. [color=7ea7d8]”My heart shall see light...our hearts shall be forever...go forth, rest in dreamland...I'll soon be there...wait for me my love...you know I'm here...to join you in dreams...you have nothing to fear…”[/color] She softly sang a lullaby to Siiri, watching as her breathing slowly ceased. She continued to sit there for a long time after still singing softly and sobbing. Hours later the cold had seeped deep into Torvi’s bones and her sister was freezing to the touch. She knew she couldn’t stay there for much longer yet she struggled with just leaving her sister without a proper burial. She finally came to the conclusion that if she wanted to live and not die from freezing to death she would have to leave her. So with a tear stained face she pulled off her sister’s necklace, placed it around her own neck, kissed her brow, and then left her there. She needed to find someplace to either stop and make a fire or find civilization. At least getting moving would help her stay a bit warmer. Dawn finally broke and she had found a small alcove and some materials to start a very small fire. She sat as close to it as she could, trying her best to keep warm when the strangest vision appeared in the sky. A skeletal being, something similar to Hela, appeared in the sky professing a message. She was shocked to find out that her kind were being hunted...who lived in this land other than humans? Just where was she? She made a quick decision and put out the fire, deciding it best to not draw as much attention to herself as possible. [color=7ea7d8][i]I need to find out more information on where I’m at and why I’m here, but I also need to be cautious of everyone…[/i][/color] She thought to herself as she began to quietly make her way through the forest, hoping to come across someone and maybe get the jump on them. She could take on one person at very least.
