Dear sweet child [Atka]

Silence laid heavily across the terra. The air was thick with the steady falling of fat, lazy snowflakes and because of this, visibility was poor. With the weather so intent on making the scape picturesque, hunting was becoming a challenge. Poor sight, poor smell. Bitter cold. The one redeeming quality the snow had was that it held proof of passage quite well and with it falling so quickly, even that was becoming hard to follow. Mother Nature was plotting against her. Nevertheless, Skadi pressed on. Somewhere out there an unattended child roamed. At first the massive huntress had been content to ignore her, but all too soon the nagging want to possess had her trailing the girl. Stealthily she observed from a distance, occasionally closing the space between them to get a better look before drifting back out of sight. The snow aided her in this regard. Skadi let herself become blanketed by it and, using its heavy presence in the air to her advantage, stalked the child until her mind was made up. She would have her. Gliding forward, Skadi attempted to rapidly close the distance between herself and the girl. She aimed to come at her from behind and circle to her left. From there she rolled her right shoulder forward, intent on driving it into the child's ribs and throwing her to the ground. If successful, Skadi would stand over her, her posture menacing, and dare the child to do anything other than submit. |
