CHAPTER 5
CHAPTER 5
Almost half of the non-fairy population of Aira Niluc is gone.
Some may be feeling the absence of their fellow participants in this story. Others will stay focused on the wish they want to get. What never changes is that the story goes on, bringing you closer to the end -- and to another chapter. What will it bring this time?
Snow!
Snow as far as the eye can see, a cold blanket covering the new area. Some winter amenities are now available, ready for perusal! But that's not all there's to find: everyone also will find reminders of their homes, of people they know, of happier times.
Of their wishes.
Who will try to reach their wish this time?

Well, that won't do. We can't have you freezing to the side of the lake before you've even warmed up...
[A hand is held out, offering to pull him to his feet and hopefully off his slowly freezing bum.]
I shall accompany you, so you won't need to worry even if you've forgotten what skates are.

The joke lands well with him, forcing a laugh that is even more visible in the cold air than his breath had been earlier. ]
Well, thanks. I'm glad you're such a pro, then.
[ De-snowed as best as it's going to get, he turns back to allow himself to be walked towards the lake, the treacherous ice that he hasn't put a blade to in over a decade. And he's certainly never really skated on an actual lake, even when he was in France. Nice was far too close to the seashore.
This should go about as well as Jack's ability to help him transition from snow to ice without his overconfidence landing him on his ass again. ]
