The weather today was beautiful yet harsh in some way. Winter had been unforgiving, and they had suffered a lot through it. Everyone was hoping summer would soon arrive, but that was just all they could do. Nothing could change the fact that the seasons in this part of the world would always be like winter.

The cold atmosphere was a harsh reminder of why she had hated home in the first place, but she had grown to love the place over time. Or maybe it was because, east or west, there would never be a place like home.

The women played with the kids and helped them out while the men had gone out to hunt. That was how they survived this place. There was nothing to be done there other than surviving. The school was history because it had been a while since any of them saw or even went back to school.
