A harsh winter in Scandinavia is a common occurrence and people expect it. Villages stock up as best they can and preparing for the long dark months ahead, sacrifice to the gods and pray that they are in Odins favor. Seers try to predict how long or short the season will be but in the end, no one saw this winter coming. No one, not even the elders can remember a winter with snow as deep or winds as high as this one. It came in early, cutting off the time they had to prepare by more than a month. Those precious days may mean the end for many families. Villages are barely getting by and sickness is setting in. What about those who live further inland? Away from the coast and the fjords, away from the people. What about those who are trying to make it on their own for one reason or another? Not having as many people to work and stock can make the food stores even more meager. Though, maybe, just maybe... Less is better. Perhaps not having as many mouths to feed will be the key to survival. If you only have to fend for yourself maybe you can get through the white night. That is, if no problems come knocking at your door. Or perhaps worse, you end up going insane because of the solitude; which is a very real possibility considering you swear you just saw someone with red hair walk by. Yeah, you're loosing it. Astra Eriksdotter maybe that very problem. Caught out in the middle of the storm for days now, she is weak, starving, and injured. Burning with fever she doesn't know if anything she is seeing is real anymore or if it is just a hallucination; including a house that looks to be nearly fully buried in the snow. Does she dare try knocking? Will she even make it to the front door, where the hell is the front door? What if someone is there? If they are, would they dare let her in? Another mouth to feed. One that is injured, burning with fever. Letting her in could mean the death of both of you but if you don't, she won't survive the night.
