new kid on the block

lily from what i’ve tasted of desire i hold with those who favor fire Do not lose hope! Almost as quickly as if she’d smoked opium, Lily finds herself overwhelmed with a pleasant drowsiness, neither cold nor wet snow impeding her decision to just take a nap right here, right now. In fact, she feels as if she were wrapped in a thick woolen blanket, so far away is Deepfrost and the troubles of this strange new world. How strange it must look, to see a woman on a pile of moss, dreaming of something that undoubtedly makes her happy! A faint smile stretches across her lips as a ball whirls through her head (entirely different from Bastien’s Masquerade), complete with lords and ladies in resplendent garb, a full string quartet, and a mouth-watering buffet of everything Lily’s only ever heard of. She twirls the night away, captures their hearts, and leaves at the end of the night full of the guests’ adoration. She is loved, and purely for being herself. Green eyes slowly blink open and she finds herself in a small clearing amidst the show. Not much time has passed, but she somehow feels as if she’s slept for a full eight - nay, ten! - hours. And there’s still time to get some tasks done! Lily picks a few clumps of moss off before heading back to The Settlement. Upbeat. Optimistic. Ready to become the singing sensation Caido never knew they needed.
