Closed The Story Tellers Tale

[Shizen Whitevine]

Walking into the crisp morning air, Shizen breaths into her gloves, a cloud of white vapor appears and vanishes before her face in the cold air. The sun rises above the low buildings in the horizon and there are few sounds within the small town this morning.

Deciding that today will be the day she finds a set job, and to start making the income and to start honing the skills she will need on the road, she begins to head for the medical facilities not far down the frosted road. As she walks, a few of the early shop owners nods towards her, stocking their stands with good for the day and shoveling snow and ice away.

Thinking to herself, it seems that the days is yet another beautiful one, and maybe perhaps it may mean there may be good fortune in finding a new start. But then again she thought, fortune was never her friend, and coming to believe after her fathers disappearance and her fiancees kidnapping- expecting good things often lead to disappointment.
