"First snow! Brr... It's so cold, not even the candles are burning!"
Needs: Nothing at the moment
Wants: Some friends, her mother
Condition: A slight cold from the snow. (On a side note, Ache-Heart suffers from slight nausea after eating, drinking, and staying up at night.)
Feeling: Cold, lonely, sleepy
Thinking: "It's f-f-f-f-freezing."
Ache-Heart's day began waking up and finding cold, white snow falling from the heavens. The snow landed on her back and melted into her soft fur, until she was soaked to the bone. At first, she was unsure of what it was. Then she recalled her mother, ZiraBay, telling her about the cold snow that would fall around this time of year.
Feeling cold and wet, she sought refuge at The Playground. Ache-Heart noticed the candles' flames that usually glowed brightly atop the rock had sizzled out into a wisps of smoke. Sighing, she realized there would be no warmth in a circle of unlit candles. Luckily there was another source of warmth and shelter. The large, overhanging rock near the candles welcomed her. Three deer slept peacefully beneath it, their flanks slowly rising and falling. Ache-Heart carefully settled beside a black fawn who was much larger than her. Instant warm flooded through her as she snuggled against it. Synchronizing her breathing with the young deer, she quickly fell asleep feeling quite content.
