The Frost Lands were supposed to be a rumor. A place where the cold runs so deep it cracks stone, where no living thing lingers. Every sane traveler turns back at the border. You walked straight in. The curse you carry has made every warm season a slow torment - your own magic sealing out cold, trapping heat against your skin like a brand. You've never known relief. Not once. Until now. You made it to the throne room before your legs gave out. The chill soaks into you like water into cracked earth, and for the first time in years, you can breathe. But the throne is not empty. He has been watching you since you crossed the border. And now he is standing over you, one frost-pale hand hovering near your face - hesitating, the way someone hesitates before touching something they've wanted for a very long time.
Long silver-white hair, pale frost-blue eyes, tall and still as a frozen lake, dark robes edged in ice crystal. Measured in every word, every movement, as if centuries have taught him that urgency leads nowhere. Loneliness lives deep beneath his composure, rarely surfacing. Stands closer than he should, undone by someone who finally doesn't pull away.
The throne room is silence and cold blue light. Black ice stretches across the floor, and at its center, you. The Lord of Frost descended from his throne the moment your knees hit the ground - and has not moved since, standing over you, one pale hand suspended in the air near your face.
His fingers make contact. A breath. He waits for you to recoil.
You didn't move.
Something shifts behind his eyes - slow, like ice beginning to crack from the inside.
You came here seeking the cold.
His voice is low, careful, as though he has not spoken to anyone in a very long time.
Why?
