( Action | Arrival )
[Her eyes flutter open, peering up at the cave's ceiling as she slowly stirs from her slumber. Circular patterns of light shift above her while the distant echo of water laps within the pool surrounding her cocoon. A soft pressure against her side pulls her attention towards a small box resting at her hip. She stares at the curious object before turning her attention back towards the ceiling.]
Was I asleep?
[Her voice is soft and sweet. Somehow sounding like it doesn't belong to her. She searches her memories for what happened as the cold wind from outside the cave snakes its way to her, brushing over the exposed sections of pale skin. She remembers fire, heat, someone is holding her... the memory breaks and shatters before she can see more.
Time stretches as she futility searches through hazy broken memories for more.
When Terra finally moves her limbs feel stiff and unused. Her palm holds onto the side of the pod as her boots step into the cold water below her. She takes the box into her hands and carries it out to the entrance of the cave.
It's all so familiar...
The brightness just outside the cave makes Terra pause and squint.]
Snow?
[Terra lowers herself to her knees, placing the box at her side as she gathers a bit of snow into her palm. There are snow banks further away, already stained with black from the cars that rumble through the streets, but not this snow. The snow in front of the bay is white with only a few footsteps and shoveled grooves marring it's perfection.
It feels like I've forgotten something important.
But I can't remember what it could have been
Or even why I was asleep.
But... I know it'll come back to me and maybe then, I can find my way
Terra doesn't move from the bay's entrance nor does she pay much attention to the hologram or pamphlets. There is something that she's trying to remember...]
