feredarStory: Arrival in The North
Year: 991 FY
Characters: Taz, Dallu
It's summer again when they reach Dallu's home. Taz hasn't seen a sunset in days. The light is overwhelming and disconcerting and everything is clear and white and cold.
There's a flash across the bow of the small boat they have now—such a little thing, just enough for the two of them and their supplies.
Taz half-watches Dallu's response--a return flash of light and a whispered conversation--resting her hand on the cool wood. The depth and coldness and ever-presence of the water surrounding her are almost as disorienting as the never-ending sun.
Dallu's hand rests on her shoulder--comfortingly warm--and she looks up at him. Prove that I belong here. She kisses him, soft and tender, and in a moment the air feels lighter around them.
They pass through the gates in the ice into another world.
