RE: Spieden, you are witness to the wind the manipulating snow into a wolf-like figure before it is blown away to nothing.
When Spieden left the monadnock that morning the sky had been bright blue with just the fewest streaks of white. The sun was much too low to really call it sunny, but she would take what she could get. She was still getting used to the place, trying to get over the uncomfortable feeling that it didn't yet feel like home. As if that was a feeling she could force if she simply tried harder.
She'd gone further out than she normally did, searching for nothing in particular. She kept the monadnock in sight, even if just a small speck on the horizon. With how flat and almost featureless the landscape, was it was easy to lose ones bearings. She didnt pay much attention to the dark clouds that were collecting on the horizon, not realizing that they were much closer than they looked. She might have started heading back earlier if she had.
The winds picked up and the sky darkened as storm clouds collected overhead. Spieden quickly turned around, setting her course straight for the monadnock once she realized the trouble that was brewing. But her strategy was flawed, and quickly the stone was blotted out. She could barely see a few feet in front of her, the maelstrom formed a shroud of white and the sun was all but erased by the dark clouds overhead. She narrowed her eyes against the snow and ice that was carried on the howling winds. Spieden pushed onfor a while, but hill after rolling hill she was hit with the feeling she wasn't even going in a straight line anymore...
Spieden was about to give up and burrow down into the snow, hoping to wait out the worst of it and possibly spend the night there when she saw a shape emerge from the squall. A pale wolf, barely set out against the white flurry that surrounded them. "Hey!" She yelled. She didn't recognize them, but figured they were stuck in this blizzard just like her. Maybe they could help eachother. But then just as quickly as they appeared, they were gone. "Hey, wait!" She hollered again, her voice barely rising over the howling winds, "Come back! Hey!!!" She yelled as she started running after them.
