The first signs of snow fell from the sky and glided towards Quinn's outstretched hand. He watched from his balcony as they covered the area in white, blanketing his city.
He liked it.
"Your 9 o'clock is here, my Lord" Sebas spoke up from behind him and he turned to regard the man standing there. His appointment was with Lord Frieda, and the man seemed far more relaxed than he was the previous day.
He wasn't here for another battle.
"Can help you, Frieda?" Quinn asked
"Yes. I was wondering if you would indulge me in a contest of sorts"
"A contest?"
Frieda nodded, "Our soldiers are getting slightly pent-up from all the quiet and I wondered if they could stretch their muscles a little."
"Oh," Quinn nodded in understanding. He was already feeling slightly uncomfortable with how quiet things were. He didn't remember the last time he wasn't either training, fighting, or killing, "What did you have in mind?"
