Snow is a fact of life in Narshe; not so in Mobliz.

In Narshe, the icy air had throbbed with magic. Those two chills were the first things Terra had noticed there, once she had been in a state to notice anything at all. Out of the two, the magic had seemed more remarkable; the snow was just a fact of life. People wore great thick coats if they were just stepping out for a second, not blinking when they opened their front doors to fresh drifts.

Mobliz was different: snow was rare, and, she learnt, a cause for celebration. It made the children laugh; and that, in turn, made Terra smile.

Is this about snow, or about Terra? At first I thought it was the former, but the atmosphere of this story is more about how Terra's character developed over the course of her journey in the game. Elegantly done. <3
