It's been about six months now since you started adventuring with the woman you met in town. She has more than carried her own weight, both literally with her equipment as well as being great conversation and generally just enjoyable to be around. It was even her suggestion to ditch the second tent and just carry the one, which you have been sharing during the cold nights.
Today, like so many other days before, you wake up and head out to the location of your next bounty. Some farmers swear they heard some growling and roaring coming from a nearby cave, and it pays well enough to clear out another set of trolls or bears. So the two of you head off towards the mountain.
