LIKE DIAMONDS IN THE SKY. UGH.

The wind howled, spitting ice and rain down upon the earth. It raged and screamed, mercilessly pelting those who braved the storm. Thunder and lightning abound, lacing the sky in rapid succession. Large chunks of ice bounced beyond the lip of the den; the occasional piece managing to find its way in. There was a small collection going in the back of the den. Captured and carried by a thin line of water, half a dozen or more pieces of hail had snaked their way into the den. They lined up against the back wall like a tiny chilly army.
Thor noticed none of these things.
He lay on his side, stretched out like a long dead creature. Beyond his internal workings, the only thing that kept him from appearing wholly dead was the subtle rising and falling of his chest and the ungodly noise crawling out of his airways. Every once in a while his ears and paws would take up an intense twitching. A tiny patch of saliva lay cooling under his mouth.
BOOM! A deafening peal of thunder rang out, echoed across the lake and then came back only slightly less powerful than the first time. Sensing the disturbance but not quite ready to rise to awareness, Thor snorted and whined before rolling onto his back. Once comfortable in this new position, the dream world claimed him again.
