A note was found frozen to a gatepost, written in a hurried, cramped hand that had clearly been trembling.
"The frost came early this year.
Not the clean white kind, but the dark grey kind.
The kind that clings in oppressive sheets instead of flakes.
I thought it was just the cold settling in wrong, but then I saw it.
Shapes.
Not footprints. Not animal tracks.
Just indentations.
Like something leaned its full weight into the frozen earth and slid itself forward wthout lifting its limbs.
And the trees... Gods help me.
Their shadows aren't falling the way they should now.
If you walk the north path, don’t follow the sound of cracking ice.
It’s not the river.
It’s something else... Learning to walk.
Its getting faster.
