Ice Mountain
You walk up the steep slope of the mountain, the air grows colder and the wind picks up. Snow forms at the base of trees and smooths the path a cold white. The clouds grow darker and the wind gusts strongly. You want to go down, but your heart tells you to move onwards. Shivering from the cold your feet begin to go numb from pain and frigid temperatures, your fingers are next.
You hear a long howl out in the distance. Great, I'm going to be frozen dinner for some pack of wolves. you think to yourself. The howls come again, closer each time, you look around quickly sometimes thinking you see something flash against the white snow. Suddenly the snow comes, thick and heavy it streams down in a white curtain. You can barely see, five feet ahead, much less the now covered path.
You wander aimlessly, frozen and shivering. You can picture yourself blue lipped and frost covered right now. Suddenly a white flash crosses the path, and a long howl comes from right next to you. You imajine you woulkd have jumped if you had the strngth, but instead your legs almost collapse. Just then a white blur steps in front of you, and speaks! "I know you are tired traveler, just trust me to get you safely home."
You nod, shivering, and follow this creature, trying to keep up as she walks ahead. You notice the snow start to stop falling and the wind die down. The clouds still hang overhead, but they are not as dark, or threatening. You see the sun peek though occasionally, and it warms you; just the thought of sun now warms you. The trees and bushes can now be seen, the snow stops, and the sun peeks out often. You can see you are almost at the end of the cloudline, and soon you will be able to see the horizon and your location.
Now you can get a better look at your savior as well, she looks a lot like a wolf, with blue streaks here and there, and a feather on her ear. She looks back to make sure you are following, then back to the path. The sun comes out fully now, and you can see that you are on a totally different side of the mountain. There is a large beach ahead, and a red/orange cliff riddled with caves. The wolf-creature nods. "This is where I leave you traveler, I suggest you not go back to the mountain without a guide." and she trots off. You walk on into the warm air of the trail.
