The snow fell gently from the skies onto the earth, adding to the thick blanket of snow. The snow from the past few days has added up, and now the snowfall almost reached Speckle's knees. And it was freezing, can't forget to mention that. It hasn't snowed in years, as it was uncommon in the land, but the white scenery was undeniable.
There was very little to eat, even with Demeter's blessing as very few plants were ready to grow. How Speckle wished that there was a warm hearth that she could rest upon, possibly suckering in some humans into letting her into their homes. It would probably be amusing too, having some company that she could 'play' with.
Out of the corner of her eye was a speck of green. Speckle quickly turned and saw it was her mistletoe. Damn, can't get any lower than being fooled by yourself. She let out a loud sigh of defeat-she was too hungry and cold. She didn't even have any energy to plan how she'll trick some humans into letting her in.

Her flame-like mane being kept pushed her her ruffled neck from the cold snow, not even she could take the heat even if she had her little fires. Making sure her cloth kept on her as she stood under a small tree. Well, she was alone while her caretaker took Ili and Sarc to find a new place, so she just did what she wanted and kept in the snowy and freezing area till then. With a yawn, she shook her head which shook the silver thread that hung from her.
With a slight sneeze, her flames made a puff and she coughed until they were normal again and rubbed her back on the tree, making some snow fall on the ground yet she did not mind. Her light blue eyes looking around, she saw a glint of green but did not bother to go forward.
Flicking her unicorn like tail to her side, she shifted her body and made sure her little scarf on her body was fine, even though only a human knew how to get it undone. Moving the snow that hugged her legs a little, they were a both and she wanted it to let go so she could move again; she felt so stiff.

Speckle plowed through the snow in the direction that was hopefully a nearby village. She could see smoke in the sky, but she could be confusing the clouds for smoke instead. Up ahead Speckle suddenly heard a noise and the thump of dropping snow. Peeking through the trees, Speckle saw a mare with a flaming mane. Flaming? That means warmth!
Excited at the prospect of warming up a little bit, she jumped through the snow eagerly to greet the stranger. "Hello!" she cried out in greeting. "Nice day isn't it? You know, if it wasn't so bloody cold." Now only a few feet away, Speckle gave the mare an awkward grin as one of her ears twitched nervously. "It sure is nice to have some company!"

Hearing not only the snow crunching from a distance, she turned her head to a voice and blinked, seeing the mare walked her way, seeing the mistletoe and...and....Wait, this one is a Tauroi like her, so there is not much to expect to be taking the wrong end, but now her personality will be in question.
"Yes, it is cold but still a lovely day; 'tis also nice to have company as well." She replied as she stood there, her tail flicking a bit. Was she only attracted to the flames on her hooves, as well as the flames replacing her mane. Well, who cares; at least she had some company until the snow goes down a bit to go search for her group.

The female seemed as if she wasn't too reserved about meeting a stranger, so Speckle moved forward a few steps as she introduced herself. "My friends call me Speckle, not because I'm small, because I'm not of course." She could almost feel the heat from the fire of the female's mane. So close yet so far.
"What's your name? I don't see others often in these areas, but everyone is always a welcome guest- err sort of." Speckle's ear twitched as she thought about it. "There had been some unsavory types that come by. Wouldn't believe that there are so many Hoi can't take a joke, really."
