Summary
Atop the castle of frost do I sit, locked away by ice and visions of white.
Seventy-five long months, seventy-five cold months have I been trapped, a princess from a northern kingdom lost to a terrible blizzard. I am the last. I have forgotten the name of my kingdom, forgotten the names of the people who inhabited it. In my memories, all I see are silhouettes in a flurry of snow, devoured by its gaping maw.
Tears have long since fallen down my cheeks. They are frozen icicles that stick to my skin, that clasp and clutch at my fur, that rake and rend me. I no longer feel such pain. It has been much too long.
Now, I simply wait for the bravery of a hero, for a promise long forgotten—long broken—to be fulfilled.
