there is something strange and creaky about her joints these days, some bone-deep soreness that cannot simply be claimed by the long days of work. the hem of her skirt is caked with mud and hair plastered to the sides of her face with the sudden rain that had split the sky and barreled down. the geese had startled and the slog back to the palace had been slow and made difficult by the slippery terrain of bluffs and grass. head tipped up to the gray sky, snow startles when her wet shoulder collides with another - - - “sorry,” she blinks, shakes her head, feels like there is cotton in her mouth and down her throat, “are you alright?”
