This time, Isdis simply opened her eyes, silently rising from her slumber. She didn't gasp, didn't move, and didn't even flinch. She was human once more, feeling the cold of her hands and soul. Traces of elder power, dominion over heat, and the bitter cold.
She looked around herself, seeing that Merida was asleep by her side, unbothered by the cold. While on the other side of the bed, Arad was violently pounding Mira from the back as Aella was asleep at the side.
Usually, she would get turned on and hope to join them, but now… she felt nothing but the cold. Looking at Arad for a solid second, just one word rang across her head.
"Ginnungagap." As she mumbled, Arad's eyes jolted open, and his fists clenched so hard that Mira's shins shattered in his grasp. She cried for a brief moment, but then silently looked at him. She was a demigoddess, so while such an injury stung a bit, it wasn't that bad.
