initium novum

hear me speak!

Awake

Icy violet eyes strained against the blinding sun. The winds that whistled were not the bitter cold she craved, no. It was mild. Where was the refreshing snow that bit against her paws? Where was the ice that nipped her nose? Where...As the moments passed and the cogs began to churn within her brilliant brain, it seemed to shudder, a heavy fog set in- things did not feel right. Something she could not place. Something she could not decipher. 

Raven-tinted violet pelt ruffled within the mild winds, as the icy Queen arose from her slumber. Sleek frame rising with ease, like the shadows crawling along the forest floor.

Forest.

A sudden pang, a crashing ebb that hit her chest- freezing her in place. 

Where was she?

What had happened?

What had she lost?

hear me speak!

Hazy. 

Sluggish. How she did not like this feeling. This feeling of weakness. Her brain could not muster thoughts, could not be sharp. She could not think. Could not place...

The heat. How she despised it. Where was the peaceful silent snows? The bitterness that stole the breath? The cries of caribou. No, here, everything was green. Foliage, overpowering perfumes assaulted her nose. Twigs, branches crunched underfoot, the soft, pliable grains of earth felt wrong underneath her paws. The air was stifling, confiding, restricting. Not clean... fresh or revitalising. Sorina moved forwards, she had to leave. This was not her home.

And yet, as she mulled over thoughts, her paws carried her forwards. A stomping, tantrum- like gate. Until...
A figure adorned in ivory and ash stood in her way.

The icy queen paused. And the woman... stared back.

There was no hint of animosity, though. Yet Sorina did not feel the need to muster any words. 

The woman was adorned in slate and ivory, eyes of ice that burned. And yet crimson stained her mouth, bright, brilliant crimson. It filled the air with a metallic tang. For that she was thankful, it took away from the overpowering assault of the furna. 

There was tension. It was palpable. And yet, she was happy to make it last. Her onyx crown tilted.

"Lost?"

A single word draped from her tongue eventually. Despite the haziness, despite the feeling she could not place. Something pulled her here to pause.

Tension grew thick, wrapping around the dense air like a silken, crimson shawl. As icy violet eyes scanned over the stained woman before her, only curiosity grew. Lacing its fingers from her chest, curling pale fingers into the air. 

“misplaced,

A hiss of words, a vipers kiss. Akin her icy exterior and piercing gaze. Bitterness clung around the woman- screamed in a lonely cry. Why... with such poise and darkness, she could have been mistaken for one of her own Kin. Indeed, Salvatoré's were known to be wolves of Winter, stubborn, arrogant, borne of ice. 


“are you lost?”

Ah, how she had missed this, the dance, the thrill. While her mind skill remained hazy and her body ached. Dare an etch of a smile twist upon her dark lips. "The question, indeed." 

“you do not smell of here,”

Her violet-tinted onyx crown uplifted. “there is more.”—

"I hail from a Kingdom of snow and ice. I had built my Empire, shard by shard. Bore a family of mine own."

"And then I awoke to find myself here."  Her gaze drifted upwards, a twisted pang carved within her chest. That ache returned now, only stronger. That perfect percaline mask of hers dared to slip. Just for a moment. A grimace twisted her muzzle, opalescent fangs exposed in the rays of sunlight. "In this ghastly, festering... sweltering prison."

A flicker of her ear, Sorina returned her attention to the woman, and took a step closer. 

"And you?"

Dare she test the snakes ability to hiss.
