Awakening - Rejected Mate
Maybe all it means is what Juan said is true, I’m a diluted impure bloodline, and completely flawed.
It’s after noon, the sun’s still high but it’s doing little to warm me through and lighten my dull mood, not that I care. We have a gift in that the cold doesn’t really affect us the way humans are, and we don’t need the same temperatures to survive. We can feel it, we can enjoy being warm and cosy, but we can sleep in freezing surroundings and not get sick. And if we do, we turn and voila, healed. I’m not worried about getting ill or injured out here as long as I can muster enough energy to turn for a few seconds, but it’s my mental state that worries me.
