Winter's Embrace

Description

From behind, the cool glow of the moon lit the forest path ahead of Thom. It was unusually bright tonight. The full moon was a cold and baleful light, seemingly drawing the warmth from the air around him. Exhaling, he could see his breath; odd for May, he thought. Something else seemed off, but Thom couldn’t place just what exactly. The night sky was veiled by trees, and as the moon continued to rise, a boreal light settled on the forest.

A cold breeze blew from behind, and circled his left wrist. To Thom’s surprise, the cold air solidified into ice around his wrist. That ice hardened forming—of all things—a manacle, with a broken chain dangling from it. At first he tried to remove it, with no luck. No lock or keyhole was present to pick, and he felt like something— what exactly he couldn’t say— was in that strange bond. That’s when the great howl echoed in his mind. It spoke to him words he half remembered from a dream, cold and relentless. 
 
The voice belonged to Fenris, and in his mind’s eye he saw the great wolf towering above a frozen wasteland, pontificating to him. In the strange encounter, the last word Thom understood was “vessel”.  Then came the winter inside. At the wolf’s behest The powers of frost coursed through his veins. The voice of the wolf was now calm and knowing, and set Thom at ease, as it prepared him. His thoughts were cleared, the voice sculpted and changed his mind… and then his body. 

A chill escaped his mouth, and before his eyes, it grew forward into a muzzle, nose going black, teeth sharpening into fangs. Thick dark fur spread out across his body, ears sharpened and flicked upright. Claws grew from fingers and toes, as his his body grew in mass, and size. A great tail grew from his spine, following the undulating commands of the unseen voice. Feet arched, and he hulked forward. 

An aura of frost encircled him, crystalizing the forest, Fimbulwinter had begun.
