Golden Glade I never dreamed that i'd meet somebody like you

A soft confession and Ady's eyes almost went wide. She caught herself just in time. She had always assumed, she was merely a job. That he held no real affection for her. She was just his kings child, and his charge. She didn't ever stop to think that perhaps he would find her pleasing as an acquaintance, a friend, what have you. Her chest felt tight for a moment, and she wanted to smile, or sing. However, instead she kept her face, open, but not to open as he searched her for something. Far too long, and not long enough he looked away and continued looking around.

Question after question flew of his tongue to buzz around her head and face. All tough asks, but she'd do her best.

So she stood still and took in a deep breath and then another, and slowly opened her senses.

I smell wood, and snow, mm squirrel, bird, deer, but it's very faint. Um something that smells acrid.

She wrinkled her nose at the last scent. It burned.

All i hear is the wind. The wind tastes like chill, like ice when you lick it from the cave mouths.

She smiled at the brief memory of licking a frozen icicle, the crunch under her teeth as she bit into it. That so cold it burned feeling, leaving her tongue tingly and funny.
