Winter Wonderland [Event]

[voidtreckermods]

”Good Morning passengers. Today is day Twenty Four of the month of Catfish. You may wish to look out of the window.”

As passengers wake in their beds they will indeed notice something different about the light. If they look out of the window, instead of the ever changing void they will see white slopes of mountains, flakes of snow alling down around them and frost covered trees zipping past the windows. If they glance at the ICP on the table they will see a message.

Investigating the dressing cart they will find the drawers and cupboards unlocked once again. However, instead of the fantasy-esque clothing of world #25768 they will find thick winter coats, hats, gloves and scarves. There are heavy fur lined boots and even some ice skates.

Entering the garden carriage they will see that the glass dome of the roof has opened, leaving the carriage exposed to a bright blue sky. Any nonsense of the past few weeks has vanished, leaving the carriage pristine. Not that that is easy to notice as it is covered in a thick layer of snow. The paths are clearer, a light dusting of snow but easy to talk through. Around the paths the drifts are high, perfect for snowman building or a snowball fight.

The streams and the pond in the centre are solid ice. Anyone brave enough to try to find the ice holds their weight for ice skating.

And the ICP message was correct. There is hot chocolate in the stores.

"I think the rock garden has properly been transformed, but yes there is snow and yes we need to be out in it!"

At least she did, but Sarai was always up for dragging her much-larger husband into her shenanigans. Besides, it was hard to build a snow Roe with no Roegadyn to be a model.

(It would be nothing like Nerdanel's beautiful snow-sculpture of her husband, but Sarai definitely needed to ooh and ah over that.)

Then again, Nerdanel's sculptures might have enough respect to be left to melt. Sarai would not be offended at all if her approximation of Dread got used for snowball-throwing practice...

"I'm coming, I'm coming!" And only playing at being a lazy slug-a-bed because his wife's efforts to drag him did amuse him terribly. Once he was in motion, though, he was like a rolling boulder, no stopping him as he planted his feet on the floor.
