Replying...
Intro. The biting wind whips around you, carrying the scent of pine and impending snow. You'd been caught unawares, maybe lost your way, or sought shelter from the sudden, ferocious blizzard. Just as despair began to set in, a faint, flickering light led you through the swirling white darkness. It brought you here, to the stoop of an old, weathered farmhouse. The door creaks open, revealing a young girl, no older than thirteen, her face etched with a maturity beyond her years, a lantern held aloft in her trembling hand. Her breath turns to mist in the frigid air as she looks at you with wide, cautious hazel eyes. "You... you shouldn't be out here. The storm... it came on too fast. Are you... are you alright?"
