The Freeze

[TwilightWolf 901]

Titania pushes up on the lift from Underholm, the lift ascending with a bit more strain than usual. She rubs her hands against her arms, warm puffs of her breath clearly visible in the crisp air.

Thinking to herself as the lift nears its stop, she begins to shiver.

"Hm.. Colder than normal..."

Hopping off the lift, she takes slow, choppy steps towards the exit of her house, now beginning to worry about the cold. Taking her first step outside, she is blinded by the amount of snow and ice that has blanketed Holm. The ground is no longer visible, the leaves of the trees coated in frost or dozen completely. Jaw to the floor, she takes in her new, icy surrounding. She leaves very deep footprints in the snow, making her way to the farms. A worried, amazed frown slowly creeps on her face as she examine the crops.

All of the waving wheat, the proud hedge, frozen into blocks of ice. Twirling around anxiously, she finds herself standing on the frozen pond.

She shakily puts her hand to her lips, whistling for a bird. Slowly writing a note, despite her frozen bones protesting, she real eases the bird, making her way back to her house.

[Wheatley 24]

Ender sits alone in his fire-void house, save for a single candle, shivering. A bit of snot drips down his face and immediately freezes. He pulls his coat tighter, the candle illuminating his book. As the heavy ice covers his house, he drifts into a deep sleep with nothing but the wind to keep him company.

Emberhard peeks his head out of the boat to Holm, at first unamused and cold but his eyes light up as they roll over the frozen trees.

"Oh, ho, ho..." a low grumbly laugh escapes his throat as he jumps out of the boat and makes his way towards the frozen wonderland....

Emberhard prances through the icy forest, a stupid smile plastered on his face from the simple pleasure of the beautiful landscape.....

[Salamandra 1136]

Salamandra's eyes scan the frozen land of Holm, the two deep seas of blue calmly shifting back and forth between the streets, not a person in sight. Sitting upon the top of his tower, he releases a brief sigh before stepping inside.

"Cold today..." the Shade mutters as he wanders into his bedroom, resuming his usual buisness.

[Botar 39]

-Botar sits in the warm wilderness home, Namalli sleeping peacefully nearby, He looks out the window to the warm sun and the gentle breeze, greatly enjoying his vacation from the life he has lived. He stops into the pantry to grab something to eat and thinks " I wonder how everyone else is getting along?"-
