The winter forest was quiet and peaceful as the cold wind blew in a nice pace.

Somewhere in the forest a young girl is seen resting her body against a white reindeer sleeping peacefully.

The reindeer which was named Ivar by the girl was starting at her quietly.

He was looking at her with a soft, loving gaze as she lays down on him.

Ivar's antlers poke her mistakenly as Sofia frowns before opening her eyes slowy. She blinks and yawns sleepily.

"I.....var? Huh? Ivar!" she jumps up as she looks around, "Oh no! How long was I asleep??" she yells as she gets up and starts to put her food wrappers and empty water bottles in her bag before picking it up.

"I'm so sorry, Ivar but I gotta go! I have to get back to the village as soon as possible." she puts her bag on and smiles at him sadly.

Ivar walks towards her and wraps his neck around her in a warm hug, Sofia looks down sadly before hugging him back.

She waits for him to move away but he doesn't so after waiting for a few minutes, she tries to move away but Ivar holds onto her tightly.

She sighs before resting her forehead on Ivar's neck, "I know you want me to stay but I really can't okay? I have to go, I have to go back to daisy.." she mutters as Ivar frowns but moves away.

Sofia smiles at him and pats his head,"Thanks Ivar. I promise to visit when I have time... Though where will I find you? I have been leaving small markings on trees so that I don't get lost but I dunno where you live soo..." she says.

Ivar looks at her before stomps his hoof on the ground twice,"here?" she asks as he nods.

"Okay then, I guess I should leave some marking before leaving!" Sofia says smiling brightly.

"I'm sorry Ivar... I have to go now." she says smiling sadly as she moves forward to give him a last hug.

"I'll miss you." she says lightly squeezing his neck is a tight hug.

She starts walking away when she stops and turns around waving at Ivar before leaving.

Ivar stares at her leave before in a blink of an eye, he's gone. It's as if he was never there...

...

"Aaaaand done!" Sofia exclaims as she finishes with her last marking.

"Welp, that was fun, I made another new friend here. This is so much fun!" she says and giggles as she swings her arms.

"But I couldn't meet karl so thats a bummer...anywho! I should hurry back, Mrs. Libera must be waiting. I hope daisy is okay..." she talks to herself as she continues walking back to the village.

"You.....listen...I....capture....not play....idiot....

She hears someone talking in the distance.

"Huh?...what's that?" She says as she looks around trying to find the source that was making the sound.

She gasps in shock as she sees the back of someone very very familiar to her.

"Alpha!"
