The Fairest didn't know why she was a little surprised that he didn't give much of a reaction, perhaps it was a true sign that Winter was his calling. "You're right, many people would ridicule myself or any other Winter for doing that. But they don't understand. Often the elders of any Freehold are Winter's for good reason. Someone needs to be the one to relay what happened and pass it down to generations as advice and a warning; whether good or bad."
She wondered why he was a little different for a moment, then the question was dropped. "Yes, We do have a few rules. Most of them are easy, one may sound it, but it is more difficult than just saying it. They are the Ice Laws."
"As Winter's we are to:" The Fairest put a finger out for each as she listed them off.
"Let Every Court Know Its Function.
Hide Your Love and Hate.
Prepare Your Farewells.
Keep the People Lost to Every Outsider."
"What unsavory things have you done?" She didn't ask permission to know, as his Queen, she didn't really need it. It was something that hopefully Quick would realize would be better off saying now. "And please, feel free to ask about any of the four laws."
