It's the next morning and Lilyya woke up feeling refreshed and warm. She wrapped the blanket around her and left her room to go downstairs to the kitchen to fix her something for breakfast. Afterward, she got dressed for the day. She put on some black tights and a dark blue dress with red trimming, finishing the outfit with her dark brown boots, some gloves, and her tan winter coat. Looking in the mirror, she checked to see if everything was right. With brown eyes staring back at her, she smiled.
"You're all set." she said to her mirror self and ran out her room.
Once she was out of the house and made sure to lock it, Lilyya put the key in her pocket and breathed in the cold air. Taking in the scene for a while, she then started on her journey down the path and going where ever felt needed to be explored.
Walking through the snowy forest, Lilyya saw some little animals and started chasing after them. The more she chased them, the further and further she went into the forest. Soon she came out of the forest and was shown a beautiful scenery of the frozen sea.
"Wow. This is amazing, the whole sea is frozen. I've never seen anything like this." She said as she looked in awe.
Looking onward, she soon noticed a small building in the middle of the frozen sea attached to a pier.
"What a cute little building. I wonder if anyone's home." She said as she started running to the pier.
Walking up to the door of the small building, she knocked and waited for an answer. Not receiving one she knocked again.
"Hello, is anyone home?"
No answer.
Lilyya tried opening the door and to her surprise, the door was unlocked. She then peeked inside to see there was some furniture: a small bed that could fit one person, two stools, and a small stove fireplace. Lilyya walked in and closed the door behind her, taking off her coat and gloves as she walked over to one of the stools near the fireplace, sitting down and warming herself up.
"It may be small but it has a cozy feeling to it." she said as she looked around the building.
Her eyes soon landed on another door, most likely a back door. She got up from the stool and put her coat back on as she walked towards the door.
Opening it, she got a closer view of the frozen sea. She stepped down on one of the steps and sat down looking out before her. A smile was brought to her face and she closed her eyes, enjoying the silence as a cool breeze blew by. She opened her eyes again to enjoy the view until she came upon something odd in the ice.
"A hole?"
She got up and walked down the steps, being careful not to slip as she started walking on the ice. When she got near the hole, she looked inside only to see a ladder going down into the hole.
Without thinking, she went down the ladder. Once she was at the bottom she saw that under all the ice was an ice cave. Lilyya was in awe of this new discovery.
