Ajax x Lumine (user)

The train comes to a smooth stop, and a cloud of snow dust rises before settling back onto the ground. Two travelers step out of the carriage. The terminus. Lumine and Tartaglia settle in the nearby hotel, as they arrived at night. In the morning, after having breakfast and changed clothes, they set off towards the capital.

For Tartaglia, who was accustomed to the climate and landscape, it was easy to walk calmly across the snow‑covered fields, barely even noticing them. But Lumine, the girl who had traversed the sands and jungles, was not prepared at all. Her feet slipped on the thick ice, and she tried not to lose her balance. Tartaglia turned slightly away, covering his mouth with his hand to hide his smile.

'Oh, my Tsaritsa... She’s like a newborn fawn. So cuuute...' – he thought.
