second snowflake / action / winter winds

[fractalize]

 [ Hello, Haven. How's it going? Is it chilly enough for you yet? No? Well, Prima's quadrant won't notice too much of a temperature shift, will they? Nah, not really. Around the edges of the mountain, where structures aren't built in, a nice, empty area lends itself to a small, still rather shy Queen.

So if you're in Prima's quadrant today, yes, that castle on the smaller side is new.


And yes, it's completely made of ice. Will it make the side of the mountain a little cooler? Perhaps. But for now, it's someone's permanent home, away from everyone else in hopes of keeping them...well. From freezing.

She's not adverse to chatting with anyone on the comm today, not like before. But for now? She's figuring out all the lovely details of her home that she didn't have the time for before. ]

[The boy looks over at the first sign of movement, smiling brightly, which doesn't seem all that unusual for him.]

It's amazing! Um...so what's your name? Have you been here very long? I mean...well, I know this castle wasn't here the other day...

[ How to have normal human interaction??? ]

Two weeks.

I've---only just now decided I couldn't stay in that temple anymore.

[ NO SHE DECIDED THAT DAY ONE. ]

My name is Elsa.

[Action]

[happyduckbutt]

That long..? Wow, I'm sorry I didn't notice sooner, then.

The temple- do you mean Prima's? Ugh, I'm really doing a great job, aren't I...

[He looks sheepishly at his feet before finally glancing back up at the young woman.]

Um, it's nice to meet you, Elsa. Like I said earlier, name's Ventus. I'm one of Prima's initiates, but I guess I'm off to a lousy start if I can't even notice when new people are around.

[fractalize]

No, it's fine, really.

[ She's rather animated, gesturing nervously. ]

Yes. I---I think so.

Initiate? I...I don't understand.

[The boy nods, trying to reassure her with a smile. He's never seen anyone so anxious!]

Kind of like...an official helper of his, I guess you can say?

[Action]

[fractalize]

And...Prima.


He's like a leader here, isn't he? A First-forged or some such.


So you're like...a knight?

[ Four for you Glen Coco. ]

[Action]

[happyduckbutt]

Yeah, he and the other Firstforged. They're not here right now, though.

Uh, I wouldn't consider it like a knight. [He smiles sheepishly.] I'm not even sure what knights do.

[Action]

[fractalize]

They're exactly as you said, official helpers to kings and queens.

[ She quietly shrugs. ]

Though I suppose that wouldn't be correct either, then.

[Action]

[happyduckbutt]

I guess not....

Well, anyway, if you need any help with anything, I'll be happy to do what I can.
