Winterfest story continued...
After the Commander's victory, by all appearances, Stars Reach Castle has been frozen solid. All of the Winterfest goers stand perfectly locked in whatever pose they were in at the time except for a few thumbs popping out of the ice. Looking around at your friends it's hard to tell if everyone is smiling or shivering, or perhaps smiling and shivering because that's what it felt like you were doing. Giving another heave-ho to break free you are distracted by a small optical illusion.
It was like you blinked, but you didn't blink. As though the sun blinked, or a flash of shadow. Looking around you see nothing but the same friends, with the same embarrassed faces, stuck in the same embarrassing positions. Then you see it. The shadow. The black cloth slowly creeping at the edge of vision. Slithering between the living ice statues, drawing ever closer. As the darkness cloaks you from behind the scent of lavender fills your nose. Like being hugged by a giant snow bear, the ice around you turns warm to the touch. Before you can break free and turn to greet your mysterious savior, you are left with nothing but the sound of a woman's laughter in the wind.
As mysteriously as the shadow girl arrived, she was gone. With the shouts of frozen friends not allowing you a moment to mourn the femme fatale's departure. Realizing you are the only freed Apprentice, you quickly rescue your teammate (if you have one) and another Apprentice!
