if the island's had been upsettingly cold with the chilled sea breeze, he thought this place might have been torture.
snow came down light but it had piled in places. wind swept it into drifts and he found himself disgruntled to have come so far just for this.
his teeth chattered within his rattling mind.
there was a greater reason for being here than just aimless wandering. he felt it, deep within his bones.
an alpine lake sprawled before him.
ravens dotted the snowy horizon. watchful and impatient. in them he thought he saw The Listener. his skin shivered with the shifting breeze.
he was alone.
no, he was not.
