"You wouldn't think the marshes in the snow and ice would be beautiful, but they are." Su had started to fall in love with the frozen loom on the edges of the water.

"The river mice are pretty cute. Their fur is supposed to be a muddy brown color but in the cold, they change to a pure white to blend in. It's a defense mechanism but one that makes them a lot less hated as a pest." Walker laughed because he knew that these mice were a huge problem for a lot of the villages and even merchants that traveled the area.
"I want ten of them for pets and I refuse to budge." The idea that Remey had in her head was that the mice could partner up with alchemists and reduce the stress with their adorable fur.
