warm welcomes

ZARIAH

Zariah nodded at his words. In a way she agreed. New circumstances required new solutions and mindsets – to a point. ”Then Halo has been a good teacher to you.” she said in a low tone. Perhaps not a kind one, but it was a rare Launceleyn who knew a kind teacher. It simply wasn’t their way. And to hear that it so readily accepted magic users? She couldn’t have been more thrilled – the fact alone made her immediately feel at home in this frozen, desolate wasteland. ”A place after my own heart.” she said lightly.

As she followed him out into the freezing cold, her wild curls whipped about her face. But she made no move to calm them, hazel eyes narrowing only slightly as they gazed out from the lookout point. Her bare legs prickled and reddened from the cold almost immediately, and she held the Ursur fur closer as she looked on the brightly glowing city below and the tundra beyond.

Snow gathered on her hair and lashes, though she seemed not to notice. It really was a captivating sight – an oasis of light and warmth surrounded by the deadly tranquility of the frozen desert; it’s merciless nature matched only by its beauty. ”I should think so, in a place like this.” she remarked quietly. Zariah glanced over at him, a small smile curving her lips. ”It is a remarkable kingdom you have here, Warden.” she said. Kingdom perhaps wasn’t the exact right word, but it didn’t seem terribly far off.
