leave it all on the tracks

Jynn was having a glorious dream. She was resting by the edge of a cerulean stream that wound it's way through a rich valley covered with deep, emerald green grass. A deep blue sky stretched out above her and as the sun began to rise it poured out pale gold light that illuminated a number of gray rocks and seemed to make the whole valley sparkle. Several elk stood upon the rocks. Suddenly a stag spied her and swiftly the does scattered.

Jynn awoke to winter and responded to the sight of frost with a long and deep sigh. Well, at least the full brunt of winter had yet to hit the west. She should be grateful to see frost and not snow. Jynn uncurled her body and stretched, enjoying the feeling of the sun on her back. She headed to the stream to get a drink and as she did she spied an unfamiliar man. "Oh, hello there! Do you live around here?"
