Despite all the preparations that had been made to face winter, the weather still came as a shock.
Being close to the ocean, Hydrogia was a place where the snow didn't stick around for long, but the mountains in the distance were completely covered in a white blanket.
The cold weather always reminded Henry of his childhood and how he enjoyed staying indoors with his parents. Since his dad was in the fields, once the ground started to freeze, there was nothing more he could do and he would come inside for the winter.
His father and mother read to him and were willing to play along with his ridiculous childhood games: those were some of Henry's favorite memories.
However, he knew the days of staying warm during winter were long gone as he brushed one of the horses in the stable. There was too damn much to do as an apprentice to even entertain the idea of relaxing by a fireplace.
