The nights in the elven realm were exceptionally cold. Fortunately, both Harlow and Julian managed to collect dry branches, leaves, and other items for firewood.
The princess was also fortunate to have a lot of supplies. On Icecube's back, she had a big bag filled with stuff she needed on her journey. She brought some from home and bought the rest on the way.
Yes, she could hunt for food, but she needed to have some stuff in case she cannot eat the animals hunted by Icecube. So, she had dried meat, hard bread, spices and flint for cooking, a knife and a sword, in addition to her bow and arrows.
The money she may have taken from her castle when she left Draec only lasted her all the way to Mount Tempest. By the time she reached the kingdom of Myreen she barely had money left.
King Alexander was so generous and understanding when Harlow came to visit. He provided her with extra gold coins when she left, but her funds were dwindling faster than ever.
