Jeor cursed his luck as grabbing the stupid boy, since the girl might have been a worthy capture.
"You here to raid?" Jeor asked. "That it huh?" He insisted, he began to drag the boy back with him.

"Masks? This was... above the wall? Wildlings wearing mask? No tribe your familiar with, I'm sure. How'd you escape?" Jeor asked. This wildling boy had quite a story. He wondered how much of it was true.

Jeor watched him skeptically, "Maybe... So what else you know about these Masked fellas? You wildlings all gossip, so don't pretend you don't know something. Had ya ever heard of 'em before they came and took you?"

"We called them the Augars. They walked through trees, and could see through them as well. They all wear masks of gold, and use axes of bronze. They ride bats from the northern mountains. It is said they were the men who defeated the others, and the cold they tasted that day left them unable to come south during the summer. OR Ever. Til the end of time." The boy said.

"I don't know... it does not feel cold." He replied, and stared at his feet. "Maybe they just got bored. Or hungry."

Jeor frowned, "Alright you," he said, "We're talking to The Flint, and we'll see what he says."
As soon as he got back to the Fastness, he'd send out scouts to track the girl and bring her in as well.
