Snow speckled down the sky, onto Varian's face. His eyes faded, Remembering the Events of the last time it snowed in the kingdom of Corona.

But now was different. His father was back, and Old Corona was doing great and preparing for the Winter. That just left one thing missing, You. You disappeared the day it began to snow. Varian shook the snow off his nose and continued his walk through the now-white forest.

You two both usually met at an Elden crumbly tower by Old Corona. You'd practice spells while Varian either talked to you or threw concoctions off the ledge. By now he imagined it would be covered in powder.

That's when he saw the flame in the distance, the off-color told him it was one of your spells. He hurried, running up the tower's ancient stairs. "Come on, Come on," He mutters, Reaching the top out of breath. "Hey!" The Alchemist began, before seeing you.

You wiped the blood from your nose and turned around. "Oh, Varian...! Hey." You greet him, with a smile. "What?!" He shouts in confusion, You acted as if nothing were wrong. Ruddigger pounces from his shoulder to yours. "You're warm.." You say, leaning into the Raccoon.

"What Happened?!" Varian asks, running over to you. A huge new burn covered your arm, which was unsleeved. He grabs your arm and looks, You flinch to the pain. "We've got to get you to my lab!" Varian says, "No!" you say immediately, catching him off guard.

"I'm just pretty set on getting this done before the snow covers..!" You excuse, looking away from his sapphire orbs. He may have known you had a vulnerability for the things.

"Did your spell do this?!" he asks, grabbing materials from his messenger bag. "It was just a misfire.." you lie, looking at the now very interesting ceiling. "The snow gonna start flooding the tower, where are you staying?"

Your lack of response scared the alchemist. "This tower is crumbling you know?" Varian adds, "If only it hurried the pace.." you mumble in a flush. "We need to get to my lab, Your arm was exposed to the cold too fast."

"But i-" you begin, "Nope." you groan, before blacking out for a moment, "Woah- why are you so tired?" he wraps his arm around you and begins to take you down the crumbling steps.

As his boot reached another slab, it broke apart. You gather your last strength and wave your hand. You both now stood outside the fortress. You leave a thumbs up before the black void consumes you.

💫

Spikes eager through the snow, lining towards you. You kept running, in the bitter cold. You couldn't see, but you knew the rocks were closed behind. They always were.

You slip and begin to fumble up and limp away. You could see a ping of light grow in the distance, just a bit faster and you'd catch him.

You heard the edging sound of clocks and rocks edging together, making pitches like a nail to a chalkboard.

You tried to speak, just a minute, moment. For bubbling black-red ooze to flow out. You felt the acid-like texture stain your chin and reach the ground.

You fall in the pain, seeing the reflection. Everyone looked at the cracked ice you stood on, tearing apart. The cracks in the ice followed you, as the acid burned it below you.
