Prompt #24 - Snow
Edana moved down the row of hedges through the giant evergreen labyrinth, a cloak drawn in around her to keep her warm from the cold December chill. She'd been stuck in this realm longer than she's ever been stuck before, and it was slowly eating away at her nerves. And there was one thing that could make her feel a bit better about being stuck here. Only, it hadn't come yet. This late into December, almost upon the eve of Winter Solstice, and yet it'd been unseasonably warm. But today the temperature had dropped, cloaks and warming spells needed when venturing outside.
The soft fall of footsteps settled into pace behind her, but she didn't turn quite yet. And after a moment of following her, the Fae behind her cleared his throat. And without turning she paused and gave a soft tilt to her head. "Yes Landon?"
"The Queen wishes a word, Edana." His voice was soft, making her turn in time to catch the softer look behind the guarded forest green eyes.
She raised her head to look at the overcast sky. "Why so sad, my Faerie Prince?" Her duel eyes settled on him after her question, the look in them not her own and she knew it.
Landon gave her a startled look. "How did you...?"
Edana moved and placed a soft kiss on his cheek. "The snow speaks more than your heart sometimes, Prince." And with that she headed off towards the exit of the labyrinth.
"What snow?" He called after her.
Edana pointed to the sky, the first few flakes beginning to fall. By not turning around, she didn't see the soft smile that Landon gave her. Her words had run true and sharp, giving her more insight into Landon than she'd ever seen and giving him some form of comfort he hadn't thought there. How she knew it was just about to snow and how she heard words that had been spoken on a snowy day decades before she'd been born she didn't know. But snow held magic. Even if it was to create a soft barrier of comfort for someone.
