They reached the settlement just as the sun was beginning to set, Chard half carrying and half dragging Nettle as the she had nearly collapsed some time ago, not having fully recovered from the ordeal she'd suffered before the Vilhallan and his wolf had rescued her. Somehow, they had managed to keep ahead of their pursuers and Chard credited it to them finding their dead comrade and his cave, while Nettle said it was because the luck goddess, Mephista, was smiling on them. Chard scoffed at this.

When Nettle awoke next she was groggy and disoriented. Her throat was as dry as a desert and her stomach felt like it was trying to eat her spine she was so hungry. But she felt like herself. The terrible nightmare that had previously plagued her had not shown itself the entire time she had been asleep, and for that she was grateful, and never again would she take for granted the wonderful gift that was a sound sleep.
She sat up and rubbed sleep from her eyes, stretching luxuriously to work out the kinks in her muscles. Gods, she'd never felt this rested in ages. It sure beat sleeping in trees with one eye open.

Far Off Places
Here we are again. Back where everything started, and now, apparently, where it shall end. We are on a hillside, balanced precariously on the top of a chain-link fence while behind us the joyful screams of children can be heard as the clamber all over the park equipment like little monkeys, laughing and playing. Before us, the smooth navy sea stretches out to meet the horizon, the molten ball of the setting sun casting golden reflections across the surface.
"Beau?"
I perk up at the sound of my name, turning to my companion, my eyes met with a thoughtful expression.
"Yes, Pepper?"

Nettle was aware only of that she was very warm. The cold that had once been plaguing her, freezing the very blood in her veins, was gone. Her mind travelled back over her progress: getting kicked off the merchant ship she had hitched a ride on in the Vilhallan capitol, Xin; staying at the 'inn' for a few days and stewing on the inustice of life, and then finally setting out on her merry way, figuring that it would be faster to just walk her way out of Vilhall than waiting for another merchant craft to become brave enough to venture into the Frost Sea. She could remember very little after that, the days blurring into monotonus series of slee

As if I wasn't updating only rarely before. I'd been planning on submitting a bunch of work after this semester was over, but now I'm not going to be able to. My laptop, which had everything I have been working on saved on it, has died a horrible death and all of my work was lost. Not sure when I'm going to submit anything next after this, but hopefully I can get something done.
Yep, as of 8 o'clock this evening I am officially done this semester and am off for three weeks worth of Christmas Break! Woot~ I'm really looking forward to going home to see my family and all of my friends and getting to spend time with them. It also means that I might have more time to do art, depending on how I budget my hang out time and how much chores I'll have to do around the house xD
Also, though I'm not a huge fan of all the snow, I would at least like to see a few white days, at least around Christmas time. All this green and rainy weather is starting to depress me.
Because after next Friday I've got a whole week off for my reading week~ I'll be going home to see the family and probably get suckered into doing chores xD Oh well, it will be nice to see them for more than one full day and I'll pay my friends back home a visit as well C:
Though I'm not looking forward to my midterms next week :C I know I have at least two, maybe more if the teachers decided to share that information with us. Guess I'd better get to studying, which I know I can do for my Short Writing class. We still don't have a text book for my Information Architecture class because the book store hasn't got them in yet, and no one can fi
