Isla glanced instinctively to the side at the touch of a hand against her, blue eyes sharp to try and see the nymph, but she remained as nothing more than a reflection in the ice. She didn't want to play a game and she wasn't sure she wanted a prize, either, Isla reaching up to take her hood down, her fair hair braided back out of her face.
