Kari, the giant white-furred tiger.
Honestly... I was a bit scared of her at first, even though Lithoa told me otherwise. But that changed drastically on the short journey that began once I got on her.
As Kari raced through the wild lands of the Neutral, leaping freely, moving swiftly and fluidly, never stopping, I literally felt like I was flying. The feeling of soaring through the air as the wind rushed in my face, as the ground rose and fell...
It was a good feeling, something I could do forever. It made me feel like I was not connected to the ground, to gravity. In a way, that's why it was perfect.
It was short-lived, though.
Because with Kari's speed, it took us only a few minutes to cross the huge lake, enter the snow-covered area, and approach the big hill.
Kari stopped in front of a wall on the slope of the hill.
