The first thing Aether noticed was the cold, and just by that, you had to imagine how cold it is. Someone like him, who had a relic made for surviving all temperatures, was cold. Just went to show how freezing it was in this place. That even he was cold. Made him wonder just how Kresis and her people lived here; it was beyond him. She must have either an ability to keep herself warm or her body had somehow adapted to this. If this were the case, he would be very impressed.
The wind slammed into him the moment he arrived, forcing him to plant his feet deeper into the stone platform beneath him. Snow flew through the air without stopping, carried by the storm in every direction. It made seeing difficult, but not impossible.
You had to squint your eyes; that way, you didn't get snowflakes getting in your eyes, that was just how bad it was. It was annoying, but in no way was it the main thing that caught your attention
The sky above him had no stars.
None.
Not a single one.
