“‘Who are you?’ Meria asked the Thaw, her voice awed and dazed.
Mather stepped forward, weaving his fingers more firmly with hers. She analyzed each of the Thaw with quick studious sweeps, and as she did, her shock hardened into something like determination. The dangerous expression her face had taken so often growing up, but now, it held a resolved twist, like she had gone from simply being stubborn and wild to channeling that energy into a goal.
And as she looked at the people before her, Mather knew what that goal was.
Winter.
‘These are the Children of the Thaw,’ he introduced. 'And we have much to tell you, my queen.’”

Happy #JoinTheBlizzard everyone!!!
In my excitement for #FrostLikeNight I really took to heart the aspects of The Snow Like ashes Trilogy that I loved the most, and one of them was the bond between the Thaw and Meira. Though there scenes together were short in ILF they were very powerful and well thought out, and I’m so excited to see what happens in FLN. But their bond through Winter and their connection with it and each other it very powerful throughout the book.
But this scene… THIS SCENE!! *gushes* this scene (in my eyes) was HUGE for, not just Mather and the Thaw, but really for Meira. The strength she gained because this scene and these people… !
I could go on all day.
Snow and ice above, this took forever to make, I’m sorry… But I got it out ASAP so yay!!
But, to those of you who use photoshop regularly, hat tip to you cuz this was so challenging idk how you do it.
Anyway, I hope y'all love it as much as I do!!!! Lots of love to you!!!!
