“Ice is for other beings, its rhythms and reasons beyond our ken, its starkness for alien eyes. The indifference of God, murmured by the world.”
― ´³´Ç²õé Luis Zárate, The Route of Ice and Salt

“Before a blizzard, I should look upon the dark earth for what seemed the last time, before the punctillated pattern of white made it something else entirely. Such helplessness in seeing the warm, familiar, kindly autumn world swallowed bit by bit. On the deck of the Demeter, looking out upon the sea and the non-existent strigoi, I felt everything disappear under a snowfall that no one else perceived. Without yet knowing why, I was certain that, somehow, Winter had embarked with us.”
