softer than ice —
she had somehow had gotten herself lost. so lost in fact that she couldn't remember how to get back to the exiles; some loner npc decided to have pity on her blubbery self enough to lead her to a group's borders. this was nothing like home, but did she really have the guts to mention it? after all, nobody seemingly liked the exiles so it'd just be mean to have the npc lead her to somewhere they might not want to go.
so, she stayed put as the npc bid her farewell (and good luck) on the brigade's borders. round puppy-like eyes surveyed the strange environment, letting out a soft whimper as she attempted to comfort herself. it'd be okay. it'd be okay. there was no scary things here, at least she thought there was none. the small, furry ice princess wanted to curl up in a soft nest already and sleep away her anxious feelings.
