Storm arrived early at the Teas'n Tomes as she waited for Peredhil. Rather than waiting in the cold or an empty home, she opted for the short walk to the meeting place and enjoyed a cup of peppermint tea. From her seat near a window, she glanced up at the blue and purple clouds, and knew that it would snow later in the evening. For the current noontime, it made a bleak atmosphere.
Fingerless gloved hands cupped the small teacup as she took her last sip. The silence of an empty room allowed her the concentration to prepare her mind for the purpose of the meeting. Her concern for Piper could no longer be kept to herself when others reached out for her assistance. She did not know what kind of help she would be, but Storm would not turn her friend away.
Her eyes moved away from the window towards the time piece, and sighed softly. It would be any moment now, when Peredhil would come and they would venture to check on Piper. With each passing encounter, the odd behavior only drew out more concern. But she was not as knowledgeable as Peredhil, and so she would save her curiosity for him on the short walk.
