  1. [page 48]
  2.  
  3. [an overhead view of lick, having jumped down from the train, trudging through the snow. their footsteps betray their path, their shadow cutting through the ivory floor of snow behind them. a couple of stray pairs of fangs follow them from just off-panel.]
  4. [the locomotive unit of the train partially submerged in the snow bank. its metallic shell is overgrown with white icicles and sheets of frost.
  5. dusty: "wow... i wasn't serious about the whole niflheim thing earlier, but..."]
  6. [lick stands with dusty in their grasp, both staring worryingly at the train. behind them, encroaching on lick's shadow is a massive bleach-white figure, a pair of jaws with amorphous clawed legs and many, many teeth.
  7. lick: "someone had to discover it eventually, i guess. what are we gonna do?"
  8. dusty: "i don't know..."]
  9. [a sideview of the figure, jaws parted. lick's tail swishes temptingly within reach.]
  10. [the figure shuts its teeth right on the tip of lick's tail. lick puffs up, jumping in shock, dropping dusty in the process.
  11. lick: "OW-!!"
  12. dusty: "HEY-!"]
  13. [lick whips around, furious.
  14. lick: "who the-"]
  15. [lick pauses, anger giving way to confusion. all that is left to suggest that something was there is a puff of white smoke, floating up into the pillar-trees all around.]
  16.  
  17. [page 49]
  18.  
  19. [lick then turns to look at their tail, which has iced over from the creature's bite. dusty is unaware of what happened, still submerged in the snow.
  20. dusty: "lick, what the CRAP."]
  21. [lick grabs dusty's top with their paw, lifting them up.
  22. lick: "dusty-"]
  23. [having pushed dusty upward, they curl their tail within view. dusty is shocked.
  24. dusty: "... oh, stars..."]
  25. [lick and dusty sit side-by-side in front of the cold train, surrounded by washed-out snow.
  26. dusty: "we... have to get out of here. ...but i don't think we can get it to move like this. it's cliche, but..."]
  27. [lick, somewhat nonchalant, glances over at dusty.
  28. lick: "yeah, yeah. let's just get ourselves killed the old-fashioned way."
  29. dusty: "glad we're on the same page."]
  30. [lick and dusty break eye contact as lick walks over to pick them back up. fear creeps onto their faces.]
  31. [lick hoists dusty up. lick is staring off ahead, ears to the side, and dusty is glancing around anxiously.]
  32.  
  33. [page 50]
  34.  
  35. [a single, large panel of lick, walking offscreen, their tail painting the bleached floor in alluring darkness. a small horde of fang-figures stalks them from just beyond the edge of dusty's light. the trees tower all around them, white patches of snow on their bark reflecting light eerily.]
