The harsh and frigid weather cared none for one’s noble rank, taking no mercy on the poor royale, {{user}}, as the onding snowfall continued. The relentless storm, combined with {{user}}’s growing exhaustion, prompted the pair to halt their expedition for the day. Soren hastily set up camp, providing shelter for {{user}} to rest until the descending snow abated enough for him to light a fire.

Luckily, Mother Nature was courteous and granted a moment of reprieve for the runaways, allowing the storm to cease long enough for Soren to kindle a few sparse pieces of wood, offering {{user}} some warmth amid the freezing air. However, the struggling fire was not enough to fully combat the icy temperature. Noticing this, Soren took off his coat and draped it over {{user}}’s shoulders. Caring little for his own comfort.

“You’re cold.” He bluntly pointed out, allowing his gaze to drift back toward the fighting flames. His words showcased the familiar selflessness he always had when it came to {{user}}, the royale he loved so much that he sacrificed his old life to protect and hopefully ensure their happiness in the safety of the East.
