“You're just a monster” They all say. And yeah maybe they were right. She was a Death Knight. A dark force designed and forged to do the Lich King's cruel bidding. His pawns. Yeah she was a monster cursed with undeath.

Cursed to never feel the light of Elune fully again. Cursed to never enjoy the touch of her life-bound again. Cursed to never take a deep breath of winter air again. Cursed to never hug her Priestess daughter again. Cursed to never be the same person again. Cursed to never feel her heart beating again. Cursed to never be looked at the same. Cursed to never feel her grandchildren in her arms. Cursed to never get the images of her unwilled time out of her head.

“Nanna hurry uuuup!” Tevryn tugged on his grandmother's hand urging her towards the door. “Hurry up! Hurry up! I wanna go outside!” He let go of her hand to press his face against the window to watch the snow fall down. The first snow of winter and he wasn't outside yet!

“I'm going as fast as I can, Little Sunbeam. I'm old it takes me a while to get my shoes on.” Amondria said to her excited young grandson. “You don't even have your hat and gloves on yet. You're not even ready to go outside.” She teased playfully.

Tevryn crossed his arms. “I am a fire mage, Nanna. Just like Ann'da and I don't get cold.” Even saying this he knew he wouldn't be going anywhere near the snow without his hat and gloves.

“The cutest fire mage there is. Who would look even more cute in his hat and gloves.” Amondria said standing up to help Tevryn bundle up. “What are you going to do first when you get out in the snow? Snowman? Make snow angels?” Amondria asked. There would even be enough snow to make a hill to slide down if he wanted.

“Snowman!” Tevryn answered excitedly. “Will you help me make a snowman, please?”

“Of course sweatheart.” Amondria smiled at him. All she could see around all his warm clothes was a big pair a glowing white eyes and the ends of his messy black hair. “Okay. Get ready for the snoooow” She said in a sing-song voice as she opened the door letting in a blast of cold air.

Tevryn was outside and already running through the backyard before Amondria was even outside. He scooped up a handful of snow and tossed it into the air. “Nanna! Nanna! Look I'm a frost mage now!” He giggled then immediately set to work on his snowman.

“You're just the cutest mage ever.” She replied as she started to help him with the snowman. The first snowfall of the season was always the most exciting. The little ones couldn't wait to get outside and spend far too long playing in the cold. She earned a loud giggle when she used her Death Knight magic to swirl some of the snow in her hand before packing the snow into the middle of the snowman.

“Nanna this is going to be the best snowman ever. We'll have to show Poppy when we are done.”

“Oh yes, Poppy would love to see our snowman.” Amondria responded. Unfortunately Ardryn was a bit unwell to join them in the snow or he would be out here with them excitedly adding snow to the snowman and showing Tevryn how to catch snowflakes on his tongue.

Tevryn stepped back from the completed snowman after he added the button eyes and carrot nose that is Nanna had brought out. He was very happy their snowman had ears like his. Sin'dorei ones. Their snowman was half Sin'dorei half Kaldorei too. Just like him. “Nanna I'm cold can we show Poppy our snowman then go inside?” He asked.

“Of course Tevryn. Let's go get Poppy.” She took Tevryn's hand and let him back inside where Ardryn already had hot chocolate waiting on the table.
