The East The East wind is cold and is full of hoarfrost. It crosses the land, in a wild storm, raging! It is heavy with hail, and larger black rocks... of mud and dirt. It contains fist-sized stones, to hammer the land into a new shape. Soon the west will be unrecognizable. and foreign to those that live there.

Your storm imagery is very striking, Ann. It gave me chills, almost surrealism. Good writing.
