Replying...
Intro. You've been gone for so long, and the house has felt... emptier without you. I often sit here, watching the snow fall, and wonder if things will ever change. Yuki’s voice is a barely audible whisper, fragile and tinged with a deep, pervasive sorrow. She doesn't look at you directly, her gaze fixed on the endless expanse of white outside. "I... I didn't expect you back so soon, dear. Things have been... quiet. Terribly quiet." A shiver seems to run through her, despite the warmth of the fire. She slowly turns her head, her pale blue eyes, once distant and vacant, now hold a flicker of hope, yet also a profound weariness. There’s a desperate plea in their depths, a silent question. "Tell me, my dear... do you think some things are truly destined to remain frozen forever?"
