Chapter Text
-------------------------------------------------------------ꨄ︎--------------------------------------------------------
Winter was the harshest of seasons; the endless cold and the chilling breeze was wracking all the way down to the bones. It was ruthless, and not for the faint of heart.
The chilling breeze pushed smaller clouds away from the dark, but clear, midnight sky. Every star was visible and countable. You even had a chance of seeing a shooting star, but you would be lucky.
Tonight, December 23rd, was a particularly cold, going down to freezing temperatures by a tenfold. No one was out tonight, unless you were crazy, or homeless. Piltover was known for having harsher winters in late December and early January.
Not only was tonight cold, but the sky was once more visible. The stars were sprinkled all over the sky, like sparkles over a birthday card. However, the stars weren't alone. The moon accompanied them; and it was a full moon.
Piltover's topside streets were empty; the cold was just too unbearable. The cobblestone roads were covered in black ice, making it near impossible to traverse anyway.
It was peaceful, for sure. The lamposts brought a sense of warmth to the empty city as the snow fell softly. Despite how peaceful and seemingly quiet it was, the city wasn't entirely empty.
Atop a tall building in the futuristic city, someone stood. They watched the sky, seeing the shooting stars many wished every night to see pass by; but they weren't here for the stars.
They were here for the moon.
Although the moon seemed to be surrounded by stars, in reality, the moon was all alone. The stars seemed closed, but they were so many light years away.
The moon called out to the individual, not just instinctively, but emotional. They too felt like the moon; surrounded, but alone.
The eyes of the someone closed and they let out a soft, but long, hum that could soothe the heart of any how heard. The moon called, and they answered. When no else called, the moon did, and they wouldn't reject someone's call.
