You're so cold but you feel alive

She looked surprised at that. It was a lovely expression; all wide eyes and perky ears and fluttering tresses as gusts of wind searched its way in to play with her hair. Made even more delightful for her lack of effort and unawareness of her own benefits, Erthë smiled at the young stallion with apparent delight.

"Really! Who is your father? Maybe I know him, I've been living in the Edge for some time now. You should have said something! We could have gone to...! to find him..."

But then, maybe not. Recalling the quiet standoff on the beach her expression fell, vibrant smiles dulling as uncertainty surfaced. What was she doing? Acting so friendly with this person, as if they were friends - when in reality she knew nothing of him and wasn't even sure she liked him. Whatever it was that possessed her to intrude upon Rikyn like this was fading, half forgotten - and in this moment all the girl could feel was awkwardness.

Attempting to pick up the smile again but failing, Erthë sidestepped away from the dark-coated man and leaned a shoulder against a column. The surface was smooth and cool to the touch, with a removed solidity that felt soothing. Averting her eyes from the unicorn, she turned her eyes out into the storm. The wind howled, the perspiration an undecided mix of rain and snow, cold sleet where shards of ice mixed in. Skin-shredding, merciless, uncaring... Breathing in the scent of moisture, petrichor and decaying matter she felt a sudden pang of regret. That the season would end was sad, in more ways than she had the words to describe.

"I wonder how long this will go on" she mumbled, after long moments of silence. She sighed, and followed the cloud of breath as it rose towards the dull, matted glass above.
