Tuesday, December 15th.
Pedrarruna Manor, Elffire City.
The first day of Winter arrived and with it, it brought snow coming from the skies.
The Winter Solstice.
On this cold dark Winter Solstice day, we await the birth of the sun, but the sun did not come to greet us.
From this, the shortest day of the year is the promise of hope and light.
The wheel ever turning onwards, takes us through the longest night.
Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand, and a talk beside the fire, it is the time for a home.
Winter is not a season, it is an occupation.
What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter to give its sweetness?
Snow was falling, so much like stars filling the dark trees of the Pedrarruna Forest, that one could easily imagine its reason for being nothing more than prettiness.
