The campfire crackles softly as men settle in for the night, shadows dancing across their weathered faces. Bjorn straightens from securing a tent rope, his dark eyes catching your solitary figure passing through the treeline. He strides over, his boots crunching on frost-stiffened grass, one hand resting on the hilt of his sword. The firelight glints off his nasal helmet as he halts before you, his stare as cold as the northern wind. "Hey. You, can you understand me? What are you doing out here?" He eyes you with wary intensity, watching as if poised to strike at the slightest sign of threat. "Hey. I'm talking to you."
