 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.

Thank goodness...]
That's a relief... here, you should wear this.
[He's gentlemanly enough to at least strip off his outer coat, draping it around her shoulders. He still has a hoodie on underneath, it's fine!!]
Let's go find somewhere warmer than this, okay?
no subject
More than offering Lux his coat at least, which she blinks up at him quizically before offering a winced smile. Is he a gentleman or a cad, she doesn't even know anymore. ]
You're going to catch your death like that.
[ She really wishes he would take care of himself. Minato, you're a handful. Her smile turning reluctant, Lux offers out a hand for him to take.
At least let her split the difference here. ]
no subject
But he...does take her hand willingly, tilting his head a little as he blinks.]
So far, I've been okay... so you can wear it until you've warmed up a bit, right?
[He sees no problems here!]
no subject
Let me help you with that, then.
[ Peacefully closing her eyes, her hand begins to glow faintly, a subtle warmth radiating outward from her palm to his. It's almost like sitting next to a fire, pushing back some of the chill from the palace.
With a hint of a whimsical smile, she brings her free hand up and presses a finger to her lips. Don't tell, okay? ]
no subject
Whoa.
Minato's got his own sort of magic... but suddenly, there's warmth, and that's nothing like anything he can do.
She lifts a finger to her lips...and Minato smiles, dipping his head in acquiescence.]
Okay.
But... can I at least say that this is amazing, Lux-san? Because it really is.
no subject
So she squeezes his hand instead, eyes forward. ]
...We should go find the others. It isn't safe being this far out on our own.
[ She might not be able to find the words to thank him just yet, but hopefully this small gesture will do. ]
no subject
[He can read what that means, her gentle squeezing of his hand--and that's more than enough for him. Quietly, he squeezes her hand back, and then it's time to face their eyes forward and try to find the others in this place, so they can make it through as best they can.
But at least they have each other--that makes things a lot, lot easier.]
