The day was cloudy, like it might snow, but it was not cold enough, not yet. The ground was crunchy from the frost so every step alertes any non-hibernating animals to your presence. Even though a tiny bit of the sun beat down, it was not nearly enough to warm anyone. Luckily, there was not much of a breeze on this winter day, but the cold was still extremely unbearable.
Eryll approaches the river to find that it had frozen over, smiling, Eryll went to go test the ice. He found a little spot where the water had found a cove and he slid onto it. There were tiny echoes of the ice creaking underneath his weight, but it didn’t crack. Eryll wondered if anyone else had decided to go ice-skating, it was winter after all.
