nevermind that noise you heard Ah, the bone chilling sensation of wintery atmospheres, it was such a delight. My body quivered in pleasurable tremors as I made my way up the slightly sloped glaciers; the cold so easily seeping through my summer coat. It was such a relief to feel anything, but the putrid heat of this year's sun. It was as if there were two giant blazing balls of fire beating down onto the already dry earth; baking every living thing alive. I could hardly stand it, being a Winter child myself. So my retreat into the Frozen Field of the North did not surprise me; I most certainly needed it. The falling snow stayed consistent as I ascended; stiff muscles wining silently with every step. "dammit." I mumbled as I recalled my many lazy Summer afternoons; lounging about as I tried to escape the heat. It was not like myself to be so slothful, but under the circumstances of this year's whether I had not taken much notice until now. Usually it would take no effort to scale this hill without a drop of fatigue. However, on this day I was three quarters of the way to the top and my legs called out to me for a brief rest. An intermission of some sort. "blasted legs!" I snapped, quite embarrassed by my lack of perfect fitness; this was just unacceptable. A frustrated grunt forced it's way through gritted fangs. After a few more steps I decided that stoping to take in the scenery would not be a sign of weak physique. Though the area was quite barren; besides the white blanket that covered the ground, there was nothing else. However, the lack of jutting plants and those who fed upon them was quite... relaxing. Just pure, gleaming crystals. I hadn't realized how mesmerizing the field was. |
