Read the excerpt from "The Snow-Queen.”

"But cannot you give little Gerda something so that she can have power over her?”

"I can give her no greater power than she has already; don't you see how great it is? Don't you see how men and beasts must help her when she wanders into the wide world with her bare feet? She is powerful already, because she is a dear little innocent child. If she cannot by herself conquer the Snow-queen and take away the glass splinters from little Kay, we cannot help her! The Snow-queen's garden begins two miles from here. You can carry the little maiden so far; put her down by the large bush with red berries growing in the snow. Then you must come back here as fast as you can.”

Then the Finland woman lifted little Gerda on the reindeer and away he sped.

The Finland woman refuses to give Gerda something to help her save Kay because she knows that

there is no way for Kay to be saved.
Gerda’s strength comes from within herself.
the reindeer has to share his powers with Gerda.
the Snow-queen must take away the glass splinters from Kay.

How bad could it be? It was just wind and water, right.


March 12th, 10 pm. No more than a few hours ago, the sky was a canvas painted hues of red, orange, and pink, but all the colour in the sky had faded, leaving only a matt canvas with no stars to observe. That is when told.


Earlier the pavements moved as great rivers of humanity. Earlier, the roads were rivers of cars. Earlier, there had been a blur of people speaking all at once. Earlier, the sun’s heat had overtaken us. Earlier, I had been safe here. Earlier, I would not have imagined this.


Throughout the night, the clouds began to spit mercilessly, depriving us of sleep as we tossed and turned. The wind whispered in our ears, hissing, and whistling. Suddenly, a bright flash illuminated the dark room, followed by a clap of thunder pulling our souls out of our bodies.


The wind screamed as if it were a banshee. Layers of pregnant clouds clung to the buildings threatening to burst. The trees flinched, the grass shivered,


The clouds were churlish and kraken-cruel. They coughed out great gouts of water and thunking balloons of sopping moisture. The rain began hammering down. A bone crushing cold scalded our skin like acid.


The brick walls that had formed my cacoons for years were now amongst a pile of rubble. I watched as the soldiers surrounding our city were ripped from their roots and thrown to the ground covered in debris.


Was it just wind and water? No..no.

together, but I'd rather be sentimental on my own. They're always saying how nice it is with
