Willow had no logical explination for the ice. She had read pleanty of books on weather and cold. Perhaps it was very cold? No. It was summer. Mabey it had gotten very cool so the ground covered in frost and the rest melted? No. It was still around her. Willow quickly packed her things. As she looked up she saw the same wren from yesterday evening. "What?" Willow said to it. It chirped,landed on the frozen grass,and quickly flew away. Willow shouldered her knapsack and headed off. She walked untill her feet hurt. She stopped for a momment and ate some bread and drank some water. She yawned and stretched. She then continued walking for a while. Finally she entered the outskirts of the town.She smiled and skipped twoards the big town. Suddenly a male fox furry and three others stopped her. Willow grunted as the leader's large hand landed on her chest. "Watcha got in that bag?" He asked,eyeing her knapsack. Willow snarled. "What do you care?" She snapped. "Gimmie that!" The leader yelled at her. Willow raised up her hand in defense and squeezed her eyes shut. When the sounds of the gang stopped suddenly. Willow opened her right eye a bit. She gasped at what she saw. The gang was frozen solid in blue ice

Assuming the summer heat would thaw them, Willow ran faster than she ever had in her life. In a short amount of time she had reached the town. She looked behind her to make sure they hadn't followed her when she ran into a woman in a pink dress. Willow panted. "S-Sorry I was just running and.." "woah baby girl!" The woman said feeling Willow's head. "feeling ok?" She asked "I-I'm on an adventure to find my mother and.." Willow trailed off. The woman smiled gently. "Put up for adoption?" She asks. "More like abandon." Willow said glaring twoards her right. "Would you like to come to the cafe for some milk and cookies?" She asked offering Willow her hand. Willow took it and followed the woman to a cozy little place with wire tables. After they were seated with some milk and cookies,Willow was asked to tell her story,so she did. She told the woman all about never knowing her mother,the woman or man who gave her food,living by herself in the barn,the odd things with ice and snow. The woman furrowed her brow. "My dear has anyone ever told you of a woman named Kihone?" She asked. Willow thought a moment and nodded. "Yes,goddess of snow and ice..correct?" "Yes"The woman agreed. "You see..Kihone is hard as nails,but has children..however she can not do it alone. She will ask a mortal to carry her baby,in exchange for riches and happiness." Willow's eyes got wider and wider. "there is a small chance,you are one of her children." Willow sighed. "How would I even know?" She asked. "More inportantly..who are you? And how do you know this?" The woman nodded."I am Hestia,goddess of the hearth" She replied
