Her blood became nothing but liquid ice, flowing through rotting veins; this rot, it lived in her, she lived in it, and no matter how much she tried to grab at it and tear it away, it remained, a stain on her soul, a stain on her being, someone she wasn't, a twin she did not want.
She ran and ran, away from home, away from those who turned her away in her hour of need, and she already could not see nor hear... until her legs gave way under her, and she fell, into the freshly fallen snow... in the now quiet forest...
I guess this can count as a little sneak-peek at my comic Daughter of Summer; this is actually a scene that happens right in the opening chapter. Not saying what really happens though, this will be a surprise! Selendy doesn't look too good though...
