Becoming The Winter Lady had added so many layers of complicated to Molly Carpenter's life that sometimes, most of the time, the young woman didn't even know which end was up. She'd spent several weeks in her new Winterific home, after the murder of Maeve. If only she could do something stupid and strip herself of the Mantle, but it wasn't that easy. There was only one way out of Winter, and insane she might be, but she was not ready to die. So, she wore the Mantle like a mask, and she played her role to the best of her ability. Really, that was all she could do.
All at once, Molly noticed the warmth. Winter was, as only Winter itself could be, colder than any cold Molly had ever known. So cold it chilled her bones. The sudden warmth was dizzying, and Molly put a hand out to grab...something, anything, to try and steady herself. She blinked against the harsh light of the sun's glare. "Where...am I?" she murmured.
She was in a park, she knew that. Her hand, when she'd reached out, caught the support beam of a swing set. There were no children swinging at the moment, only a pair of tykes a few feet to her left playing on a jungle gym structure. Molly looked around. Terribly disoriented and confused, she sat on the nearest swing and swayed slightly as she surveyed her surroundings and tried to figure out what to do next.
