Event Fourteen.

[awashmods]

Roses bloom and cease to be, But we shall the Christ-child see.

t's very, very cold. It's cold enough that you'll see your breath fog in the air before you, that goosebumps appear on your arms and legs and a chill goes up your spine. You're inside, in a huge palace with sweeping arches and rooms, but it's no real shelter from the cold -- it's just as cold inside as out. There's a throne room, a kitchen, various rooms and even a dungeon to be explored -- and outside, a frigid, frozen garden, a lake that's naturally frozen over, and miles, and miles of snow as far as the eye can see. But be careful while you explore. The snowflake soldiers are naturally dangerous, but even more dangerous than that...there's that creeping sensation of numbness going up your arm, a pang through your chest, and the slow, slow freezing from the inside out. Try not to leave any of your friends behind, okay? Even if they might look a bit too uncannily like some of the statues hanging around for decoration when they're frozen over.

In that case... [ She'll make her arm a little more secure around his, and place her free hand on top of it as they walk. ] There you go.

Too bad we weren't given time to put on coat before we were transported here. I wonder if that's how this place usually works... [ She's new here, after all. ]

Unfortunately, it is. [ As someone who's been here day 1, he's pretty sure he's allowed to talk shit about the town all he wants. ] Admittedly, this is the first time we've all outright woken up somewhere else with no recollection of how we got here, but finding ourselves in strange places and memory loss is pretty par for the course, so...

[ He's maybe just a little bitter. But he does manage a sheepish smile at her, anyway. ]

Pardon my manners. I'm Caramia. And grazie. I appreciate this a lot. I don't do very well with cold.

Pyra. [ She replies, giving him a warm smile. ]

Honestly, maybe there were signs to something... well, cold happening these past weeks. When I first appeared, the well has its top completely frozen over!

I've been told that unnatural things in this place happen... naturally.
