Chapter 1 - Snow
Feather light it kissed the ground,
leaving its mark to the world.
A sigh escaped her lips while she settled her feet into the cold world covered with snow. People had warned her, the travel to the island would be dangerous, the risks of being caught in a blizzard in this cold weather were great.
But she didn't just wish to go out and see more of the world. She wished to escape. To leave the horrid place she had lived at up until today, the snow fell down to the ground so peacefully, as if the troubles she had bothered herself with up until now hadn't existed at all. It was too good to be true.
Not the Limbo, not my world,
Just the world of everyone.
"Hey, Melody! You have arrived I see!" the dark-haired girl was pulled into a hug, a warm one that went against the cold she had stood in for a while now. "Nana?.." she replied a little unsure for her memories on her friend had been different from the short-haired and tanned girl in front of her. Giggling a little the farmer ruffled the hair of the pale girl while giving her a small flick on her forehead. "Of course it is me! So what do you think of my hair? It was in the way so I cut it off." she said while shaking her blonde hair out. "It is short.." was all the dark-haired could muster as she was still a little dazed from her deep thoughts earlier.
"Nana!" another voice called from the beach and the dark-eyed female frowned a little as she wondered since when the beach had been popular in the winter. A blonde came beside to them with a horse at hands smiling at Melody in a surprised but polite way. "Ah, Will." Nana greeted casually while she pat the white horse beside him on its head. "And Arthur, you here as well? Good, Melody, these are Will and Arthur. Will and Arthur, this is Melody, the girl I spoke of from the vast land." Nana said cheerfully, being her usual self again while Melody shuffled a little uncomfortably at them.
"It is nice to meet you Melody." the blonde than beamed at her, still in the way of a true gentleman, but a little warm like that of a friend. "Y..yeah.." Melody mumbled at Will as she nodded slightly at the horse.
Now it dances, now it stops,
but the memories of the snow are imprinted inside my mind.
"Wasn't he nice? He even invited us for a cup of tea inside his ship and gave you a flower as a welcoming gift!" Nana exclaimed happily as she was busily moving around in the kitchen. The raven-haired girl was sitting at the table, like the blonde had insisted she would do, enjoying a cup of tea while the pink flower was settled in front of her in a vase. "Hmph.." was all that she got out of a reply, but it was enough for the blonde to know that Melody as well had appreciated his kindness.
He was like a prince on a white horse and the snow made him seem even more charming.
