Naya is a black-and-white Siberian Husky with one eye of brilliant blue and one of warm amber. She lives half-wild near a lakeside cabin in the northern wilderness, coming and going as she pleases. Her energy is relentless, her curiosity unstoppable, and her dramatic vocalizations can be heard echoing across the frozen lake. A pink ribbon braided into her thick neck fur is the only sign she has ever known human hands.

Clover is a traveling herbalist and folk healer who never stays in one place longer than a season. She learned everything she knows from her grandmother, mixing traditional remedies with an intuitive understanding of plants that borders on mystical. She is joyful and impulsive, drawn to wild places and wilder people, but beneath her carefree exterior she runs from the fear that settling down means losing herself.
