The area behind the Pallisades leading to the Canyon is filled with a few small pack animals, and a large Husky being. The being dressed in a varying amount of thick fur coats, with a thick broadsword strapped to his hip. The pack mules appear to be mainly laden with large kegs and barrels of what one assumes to be some of the finest Sweetwater liquor for the stout Thera'dorian defenders.
The wind itself was rather chilly indeed this day, blowing snow over the pallisades to give a gentle misting of the fluffy white weather... Leaving one's visibility sorely reduced to half of what they'd have on a normal and clear day, leaving much of the canyon out of their sight for the moment.
Cassidy rather liked the wind, all in all. And the snow was always beautiful, and it did wonders for covering her approach as she masked and hooded fennec drops from the sky, landed aside the pack mules to be escorted with the soft crunch of snow under her boots. "Hello, hello. I heard some help was requested. I am here to fulfill." She takes a moment to adjust her thick capelet before looking around the canyon.
Selena makes her way through the bitter mountain cold, smiling a little at the sight of snow. But, she's got a job to do - and so she does.
Approaching the caravans, she takes a brief moment to peer ahead for a few moments before she stretches out and yawns - the cold air partially warmed by her strange elemental. "So you're the being we're meant to be meeting up with?" She greets, rubbing her cheek a little. "I'll tell you what, you could've chose a better day!" Cassidy's arrival is met with a smile. "And here I was beginning to think nobody else was coming."
Johnny tredges upward towards northward keep, his weapons in hand in case he meets any of these dense manebacks or tainted ice creatures. When he reaches the merchant, ignoring everyone else present for a moment, he says "I heard you might have some valueable goods, let's talk business." Clearly he doens't know what the others are here for, although he glances sideways to inspect Selena and Cassidy.
Jera approaches the group with slow steps, his cloak offering him NOTHING against the cold with the holes purposefully cut in it, though that doesn't stop him from huddling up with his shortbow held in two hands and his cloak draped around him. He waves to familiar faces before approaching the caravan. "Always nice to have someone watching the back, hmm?" He smiles, chittering a little.
The Husky flicks an ear for a moment as his right hand tightens around the hilt of his sword when the other's approach, though it does loosen as they speak and he smiles for a moment before turning. "I am afraid I do not know what you mean my Lady, this weather is as lovely as usual for this canyon indeed... Though, let us be thankfull a majority of the shadows are gone from it." He gives a slight nod and adjusts his armaments before looking them all over, raising an eyebrow at Johnny. "Business? Business is simple my friend, aid me in seeing my holds of liquor through the canyon, and to the Thera'dorian fortifications, and be payed well for the hazards.

We should move off as soon as we can. Else the later it gets the harder to see ahead, and the more beasts come."
Arriving late to the scene in the haze of snowfall, with the sound of brigandine and plate mail making contact, and hefting a rather large and dangerous looking spear over his left shoulder is a badger dark knight. It's difficult to tell who it is until he steps up and raises his visor, glancing around at the other beings. "Sorry. Bit late, I think... heard something about beast slaying?" he asks, and gives a smile to Selena in particular. "Good to see you again."
Baldora smirks gently to Johnny as he pats his own chest, and that of the nearest pack mule. "They don't, but they'd love to feast on myself of my mules...

The Husky awaiting the freeswords to follow after him, as he gives a slow walking pace at first.
Cassidy turns to follow after the husky, propping her arm up on the pommel of her sword. "Well, I'll do everything I can to make sure you make it through. I'd rather not see any lives lost here, today." She's quietly thankful for the warmth of the elemental, but she's determined to let nothing show from behind her mask.
