Nolo, Nolle, Nolui : Chapter 46
Mar. 6th, 2011 04:12 amThey had been walking for three days when they hit the first snow; fine, soft flakes that covered the ground in no time at all. By the time they stopped to set up camp, there was a covering of at least two inches, although it had stopped snowing. While Fearghal, Alistair and Zevran put the tents up, Wynne, Morrigan and Leliana got a fire going.
