When I awoke the following morning, I quickly checked to see if the items I laid out and the arrows I carved were still present and unmoved.
The items were, but the arrows were almost completely gone from the frost; it seemed that the chill last night added to the frost coating the roots, covering up what I carved.
That wasn't a good sign, since that meant I needed to make sure my items were in a spot that wouldn't be moved by my sleeping body, as well as under cover so that any winds or other factors wouldn't move them either.
Of course, I could always climb a tree and locate the sun, which would allow me to orient myself to the way I need to go, since I still remember where the sun was when I managed to activate the Soul Bond back then.
Problem with that was that I didn't know what lived up in the canopy of this frozen forest, and considering that alchemist told me one of the tribes that lived here were Harpy's, well...
