Chapter 11

“Snow!” Kaz nearly shouted.

“Not hard,” I said.

I assumed she would hate the snow as much as she hated rain, but a huge grin lit up her entire face. She nearly jumped out of the bed and raced to look out the window with me.

“Eeee!” Kaz squealed.

“What!” Shocked laughter burst from my chest. “You like snow?”

“I love snow!” Kaz grabbed my arms and leaned up as close to my face as her short self could reach. “Isn’t it beautiful!”

“Um…” Prinna hummed from her spot on the bed. “What’s snow?”

My eyes went wide with double shock. I’d grown up in Arizona, but even I knew what snow was. I wondered if snow had gone the way of the Dodo in Amirma the same as so many other things due to the Consumption.

“Come see,” I said, and I stepped back from the window to make space for Prinna.

My white-blonde witch walked across the room, and her surprise was palpable.

“It’s so white!” Prinna gasped.

“It’s beautiful,” Kaz sighed dreamily.

“Yeah,” I chuckled. “But it’s cold!”

“I know,” Kaz grumbled playfully. “I hate that part of it, but it’s so pretty.”

“You are…” I shook my head. “So confusing.”

“What?” Kaz giggled. “I can’t like snow?”

“No, you can!” I laughed. “I just didn’t expect you to is all.”

“Well I’m just full of surprises,” Kaz said, and she stuck her tongue out at me. “You’ve never seen snow before, Prin?”

“No,” Prinna said. “What is it? Is it dangerous? Is it an enchantment?”

“It’s weather,” I explained. “When the air gets cold enough, water in the clouds freeze into tiny crystals, and they fall as snowflakes, instead of rain.”

“That’s rain?” Prinna asked, even more shocked than before.

“Well, sort of…” I said.

“Can we go outside in it?” Prinna asked.

“Yeah, of course,” I chuckled. “I’ve never driven in snow before, but there’s not a lot of it.”

The snow was just barely covering the ground in a thin layer of white, and it wasn’t sticking to the road at all. I felt comfortable enough driving on that, and a little bit of flurries wasn’t going to stop me from getting back to Ebon on time.

“We should dress warm,” I said. “And boots. Wear boots.”

“I’m way ahead of you!” Kaz giggled as she raced around the room.

Prinna and I shared an affectionate smile, and we all got dressed for the day. I bundled up in flannel-lined jeans, a long-sleeved thermal shirt, a simple black sweater, and two pairs of socks. I might not have spent much time in the snow, but I’d watched enough movies to know your toes always got cold.

Prinna pulled on a pair of black leggings and followed them in dark wash jeans. Then she layered three shirts together and topped it with a fuzzy purple sweater that didn’t look super warm. I started to say something, but Prinna pulled a heavier jacket over the top, and she finished the look with a thick scarf around her slender neck.

Kaz put on as many layers as Prinna and myself combined. She went for two pairs of leggings before putting on a pair of relaxed fit jeans.
