The phoenix mountains were not very hard to find for the young slayer, in fact, the settlements around the area know of the thieves' guild very well. Known as silver wolf, apparently the rumor is that those with ill intent will never find the guild's halls, be led astray by the blizzard until their corpse becomes another warning to all foolish enough to try. Well it was just rumor, and besides, she grew up around constant blizzards and snowy mountains. They were going to be very shocked when she storms the hideout of scale snatchers and cutthroats.
A couple hours in the blizzard and Reina was not progressing as fast as she would like. The blizzard was as ferocious as she had seen, and realized any tracks that the thieves might leave would be covered up quickly. The mountains would lend no aid either, much of their base are stone and their doesn't seem to be any metal deposits close enough to the surface for her to tunnel through. The bright side was the rumors about those foolish people were true, or at least their rusted weapons and armors. They provided a nice snack to keep her going through this blizzard, no corpses with them but that's probably on account of the wolves. Which was weird, she was spotting a lot of wolves and no big prey like bison or reindeer. And some even glowed! Well, at least they kept their distance, one less thing to worry about.
Reina after the third hour would have to pause to gather her bearings, finding a small crevice of stone near the base of the mountain, stopping the wind enough for her to focus. She hugged her bison pelt cloak close to her as she began carving into the rock with a iron nail and talking aloud to herself in draconic. "Well these bastards can't be too far from me! Maybe...yeah, if I carve away the rock enough, I should be able to get my bearings from underground. And if not at least I'll have shelter. Probably will have to start hunting wolves if the scraps run out." And would continue this planning aloud as the blizzard raged on around her.
