A voice called back! It had been a while since Artorias had heard a friendly voice. He had spent so much time with Sif, fighting back the Abyss, that friendly conversation was a thing long since lost to him. He knew to be on guard. In case the stranger wasn't so friendly. What if they were human?
And then he saw her. A strange, human sized woman. She didn't have the bitter stench of humanity about her. There was no twisted dark soul in her, she was something else. He could sense it although he did not know what she was.
"Where am I? What is this place?" he asked. Sif walked over towards Frigga, sniffing at her curiously. The wolf sat down before her respectfully and nuzzled her hand with her nose.
