Not long after, you depart. You travel with Eka, of course, but also with Olu the Archer and with the Thief—the latter once more in a human guise.

True to your assertion, to you light each night against the cold and the dark with dragonfire, to preserve your shivering companions.
Then, the first true cold-snap comes, and the first snowfall shortly thereafter. You of the cold-blooded Master Race all bundle up in your thinner, summer-autumn jackets, and crowd around the flame.
