    Snow…

    She sat on an armchair in front of the window, a small book rested on her lap. Her hands lay on the
    open pages, motionless, having stopped their continuous motions of revealing new pages.
    Outside a blizzard raged on and the pale light could barely reach the motionless figure starring serenely
    into the smoky storm.
    A small, pale hand moved causing the book to fall. She stood up, still lost in thought. The wind’s
    howling continued.
    A tiny, plush like golem entered the room, picked up the book then started shuffling around, just out of
    sight of the now standing figure near the window.

    A shrill noise shattered the silence. A small female figure glided through the corridors towards the
    entrance. Past the door, there laid a crystal path leading to the sole arrival point on the planet. As she
    walked, up ahead, she saw five people. Her face took a slightly surprised expression, even as she went
    to greet the arrivals. The land of eternal snow, had just received its first ever guests.

    Five people, of varying looks and ages stood confused, watching as a blizzard raged outside the crystal
    dome they were in.

    ‘Hello and welcome!’ intoned a soft voice from behind them.

    They all turned startled, to see a most beautiful woman standing there. She was small, standing at only
    five foot even, with dainty features. Her petite body, white skin and silver hair reaching her knees,
    dressed in a baby blue dress made her look like a doll. Her face though, said a different story. Set on
    her delicate face were a set of liquid mercury eyes that showed wisdom beyond her deceptively young
    physical age.

    ‘I am Eira, the queen of this land.’ She continued, ’Would you mind telling me the reason of your
    presence here?’ she asked curiously with a small tilt of her head.

    One of the visitors found his voice and answered: ’I don’t know. I was hurt, almost dead when this being
    that looked an awful lot like an angel appeared and said that I was going to be ok, and that I was going
    someplace better. Then I woke up on a sandy beach, got rounded up with these people and was
    somehow sent here. That is just about all I know.’ The others all nodded in agreement. It had been the
    same for them.

    Eira sighed. She could probably send them away. It was her territory after all, but, in this isolated frozen
    land there has never been any visitors. She was alone, ruling over a glacial world of nothingness. In
    time she had created golems, more out of boredom than any real necessity, but now… now, humans,
    real, living humans have stepped into her home. It wasn’t like she felt lonely, but still a little, hopefully
    intelligent, company would do no harm.
    ‘I see. Follow me then, I shall explain everything.’ And saying that she started heading back through the
    tunnel, leaving the others with no other choice but t follow.

    As they walked, it became clear that even though the crystal walls surrounding them were transparent,
    nothing outside could be seen. Due to the blizzard the landscape seemed to only be composed of
    dunes of wispy white snow. Soon the end of the tunnel could be seen, and a giant white door stood ajar
    for them
