It happened during the last Alliance, when I had just arrived in Beqanna, so it’s not entirely new to me. Neither is darkness - my eyes adjust and I see perfectly fine, aided further by the heat signals that I receive when I choose to.
The darkness lasts, and that starts to concern me. Slowly at first, but when the minutes stretch into hours, I know something is amiss.
If not for me, then for those who live on the Isle. They have a hard time finding food already, but if the sun is blocked, the cold will creep up on them - most of them anyway. Me and my direct kin, at least those who inherited something of cold resistance or heat generation, we’ll survive. But there are fewer still who live in the cold north, and this is going to ruin the last of them who don’t have traits to help them.
This darkness means eternal winter on the Isle, and I wish I could share my cold resistance.
There is but one beacon in the dark now; the aurora lights are hardly there, but there’s still a blue flame up north, near the magically unfrozen lake. There is the only magic of the Isle, and it does nothing but being pretty.
I need the land to be more alive. Perhaps not in the way Straia had mentioned, but one can try.
I’m in a hurry when I wing myself to the Mountain, land somewhere on the lowest of it’s slopes, and canter myself almost recklessly to the top. Of course, halfway through I have to slow down, but it’s nothing but emergency that drives me, and I take advantage of claws when I need the grip.
I breath loudly and take long breaths to stabilize myself when I make it to the top. This is the first time I’ve actually ran up the Mountain, and that -mostly- in my horse shape. I don’t have the breath to call out, but there’s something that the Alliance awarded me with.
I’d like your help with something, if you could. I’m not even sure if this is within their power - or maybe they’re too busy figuring out what to do about the lasting eclipse, or it takes all their energy. Or fighting the figures that had brought it, that I’ve found creeping down below on my flight here.
I myself cannot do it - not on my own anyway. I’m an embodiment of ice, and it’s the opposite that we need.</div><div class="Leilan-grad-5"></div><div class="Leilan-quote-5">there’s an ocean in between your heart and me</div><img src=https://imgur.com/ZfQPBDN.png></div></center>
Here for a land request - to give the flaming tree (or something/someone else) the ability to protect Icicle Isle’s inhabitants from the (worst of the) cold so they don't freeze to death in the darkness, please! @[Nashua] will be helping too, but he's a little preoccupied with birthing a monster in his current timeline, so he couldn't quite make it up the Mountain (:

Two things I know I can make: pretty kids, and people mad.
