Darkness...

It was all she knew...

Deep within a cavern she had been shackled to the wall for who knows how long, ancient runic symbols not only etched on the chains that bound her but the wall surrounding her small form which was held several feet above the ground.

A voice...

A warm touch...

She was lowered to the ground after the shackles had been removed, what spell she had been under was broken. At least part of it. She felt hands, rubbing her arms in attempt to bring warmth to her. Large hands. And a baritone voice urged her to wake. To wake from the dark abyss that had claimed her for so long. After some struggle her eyes did open, the world coming to her in one large blur. Hovering over, a figure she was unable to make out. But the voice was male. Her lips parted in attempt to speak but found no voice to do so. Not a sound fell from her lips, even as she sighed out.

Her chest hurt as it raised and fell in attempt to gulp air to fill her lungs. Actually every fiber of her stung with awakening. She heard the voice, urging her to remain still and that he was going look for help. Then she was alone again.

Slowly the world began to focus and she forced herself to sit up. Not a clue in the world as to where she was but she found herself staring at the markings on the wall with a sense of curiosity. She waited...

Hours...

Days...

Weeks..

The third week she was found by Icer, unconscious and cold. The kind dragoness brought her home and gave her a warm bed to rest.

Now she sat in the warmth of the lair, wondering what she would of done without that wonderful dragoness. Would she, even with several weeks gone by, still be in that cavern" Waiting.." And who was the man that found her" Would she ever know the answer to these questions" Questions she could not, and may never, be able to answer.

Weeks now after her awakening and she knew almost as little as when she woke. And she had just as little friends. Well, granted she had a new one that was much fun. The presences of one named Paladin who seemed to enjoy the snow as much as she. It seemed like he and Icer were the only ones who gave enough time to know the silent one. This was to be expected, she supposed.

This particular afternoon, after enjoying warm chocolate - which Paladin introduced her to - at the inn, she made her way back to glen, near Icer's lair.

Much had been going on around the lair but she didn't want to pry in Icer's business.

Instead she had began to build snowmen about the lair in hopes to bring some sort of cheer to the Icer and her kin. Of course two of the snowmen had been bowled over by herself and Paladin in a fierce snowball fight so there was some rebuilding to be done. But with the freshly fallen snow she had plenty of snow and future ammo.

Delicate hands softly patted and formed snow as she went to work on crafting a towering snowman, for some reason Paladin was in mind as this one was created. Two light grey stones used for eyes and just to be 'evil' she used some berry juice on the cheeks for a blush effect.

Fond memories...

New memories which was all she truly had now.
