Snow White // White as Snow by Tanith Lee
Once upon a time in the middle of winter, when the flakes of snow were falling like feathers from the sky, a queen sat at a window sewing, and the frame of the window was made of black ebony. And whilst she was sewing and looking out of the window at the snow, she pricked her finger with the needle, and three drops of blood fell upon the snow. And the red looked pretty upon the white snow, and she thought to herself, "Would that I had a child as white as snow, as red as blood, and as black as the wood of the window-frame."

Haunting the halls of used bookstores wailing "Do you have any Tanith Lee?" like a ghost asking for her children.

>be me >finish DAI and need a break >remember i wanted to refresh/analyze my fav author's dialogue style since i had been having trouble formatting my own >pick a random novella i remember liking but haven't read for many years and almost entirely forget the story of >it's the most solavellan coded literature i've ever read in my fucking life right down to the antagonist/deuteragonist/love interest being a guy who wears a wolf cloak and turns into a wolf who made a terrible mistake in his past and the heroine losing part of her hand
thanks brain. thanks a lot.
it's available to borrow on internet archive if you would like to torture yourself enjoy a good little read from an amazing author. (it's the 2nd story, starts on p. 125)
#i couldn't have made a dumber choice if i'd tried#there's literally a summoned spirit possessing a body and a religion that isn't what it seems#like it couldn't be any more on the nose#i would suspect it of being serial-numbers-filed-off-fic if it weren't from the 70s#my subconscious truly enjoys maximum suffering apparently#why would i expect to read tanith lee and not suffer emotionally though ig#dragon age#DA:I#solas#solavellan#tanith lee#the winter players
