And Raafi will teleport them south, and then cast a spell that turns them into smudges of colored cloudstuff and summons a gust of wind to whisk them on their way, even further south to where the weather begins to turn arctic and Raafi begins casting spells on them to protect them from the cold every time they pause for meals and to rest.
On the morning of the fourth day, he casts a Sending before they set off, and near midday he spots a smudge that turns out to be three more humanoids, sitting on a rug in the middle of the sky.
The friendliest-looking one is also the shortest, obviously either a gnome or a halfling from Raafi's descriptions of the species, and presumably female based on the emerald-green skirt she's wearing; she waves enthusiastically when they get close. Her companions are taller, but still shorter than Raafi by at least a foot; one is very stout and heavily bearded, wearing an outfit even plainer than Raafi's, and the other is very thin and all in brighter colors, from the cloak of gold-dipped sapphire feathers around his shoulders to his sandy yellow skin and tightly curled brick-red hair.
There might be room for Raafi and Skon to land on the rug too, but not comfortably, and anyway the group starts heading back toward the ground before they're close enough to consider it.
