Before Cordelia, crouched and ready, was the reindeer. He knew the agile, cloven hooves would be far better at trotting across this hellfire terrain. Better than the bear, at least, and his lynx form was too small to carry any human being. As he crouched and waited for her to mount up, his leg (that was an arm in human form) throbbed a bit, but nothing that kept him from bringing his fellow hunter safely home.
As she settled on his back, Noah turned for the tundra, and headed home.
