So Mist had survived the rise of Christianity, thwarted the Mayan Apocalypse set for 2012 A.D., and barely tolerated Digger's existence only to land in Gebo. Apparently a candidate for marriage to a prince. That really didn't sit well with her, especially after how her human life had ended. Still, she was free of Digger, so she was actually happy about that. Not that one could really tell she was happy, Mist didn't exactly show emotions much.

As she walked along, minding her own business, she was stopped in her tracks by a box suddenly landing in front of her. A slightly puzzled look crossed her face as she looked down at it. Being the sort to be drawn in by the runes, she was a Viking after all, she knelt down to examine the box closer, tentatively reaching out to touch it.

[OOC: Mist is a Valkyrie. She was a character of mine in a FUDGE tabletop campaign based around the world of Neil Gaiman's American Gods. You can find some info about her here if you want some detailed background for her. But for the purposes of this, any character that can tell if someone is alive/human/etc will be able to tell she's not. She's immortal and has some power to her.]
