An old woman shielding herself with her fur coats from the harshness of the winds. When she heard the cries of a child, she follows the cries to find small footsteps in the snow. She wonders what a child would be doing this far out in the deep harshness
of the North. She stops suddenly as she spots a gigantic stilloute of a Snow cat. She looks closer to see it not moving, making her come a bit closer to it. The cries became more fiercer and louder as she finally saw what was clinging onto the Snow
cat. "Child? Where is your clan?" She asks as she tries to help the poor girl up. The girl stares up at the woman making her gasp in shock and in a bit of fright. The girl's eye are that of the Snow cats. Slit iris and the color a shade of pure turquoise.
That's when the woman knew just what clan this girl had belonged to. "Come girl. I will bring you to your new home. We can have a ceromoney for your loss of your family, clan, and your beasts." She spoke with grief and softly making the girl run to
her crying. As she held the girl the woman looked over in time to see the once giant Snow cat turned back into that of a man. She recognized him as the Chief.

On the way back to her village the woman had learned the girl's name to be Clarity Bas, daughter of Chief Jatos Bas and Snow Witch Chaos Bas. "You may call me Herra." She spoke as they made their way to one of the huts. "You must be hungry and don't say
that you are not. For you need your strength. With strength you will be able to do more." Herra explained as she took Clarity into her hut. Clarity looked hesitant at Herra as a question pop into her mind. "For what?" All Herra gave her in response
was a glint in her eye and a bowl filled with stew. That's the start of how Clarity Bas's fate was changed from then on.

4 years later...

"Come now Clarity! I don't need to be late for the feast. Remember we are going there just for rest. Then we are heading to help with the Wall." Herra spoke quickly as she gathered all the charms, gold, and clothes. Clarity nodded as she went to gather
their horses. Clarity grabbed the saddles that she personally made, one for herself to remind her of her clan's heritage and symbol of a Snow Cat, and one for her foster mother. Herra ran out nearly falling over making Clarity look at her strangely.
"Never in my life have I ever seen you so worked up over going to the wall. Did I miss something?" Herra looked back at her adopted daughter with a smug grin. "Well let's just say I fancy someone at the feast..." Clarity burst out laughing making
Herra smack her upside her head. "Now come along, before we are late." Clarity rolled her cat like eyes making Herra remember to give her, her blindfold. "Remember your senses, use them." Herra looked at Clarity as she looked at the blindfold with
sadness and hate. She puts it on never the less. Then they were off to Winterfell.

As they reached the gates soldiers of the Stark's housing branded into their shields escorted the both of them to the stables. Clarity climbed off and started to gather her things as Herra spoke to the guards. "I will notify Lord Stark, my Lady." He bowed
to Herra and left quickly making Clarity wonder why they were really here. "Herra humor me. What are we really here for? Certainly not for a simple feast, nor just a fancy." Herra's laughter echoed up to the skies, at her daughter's sharp mind. "Aye
you are correct, my dear Clarity. You shall see soon why I have brought you here."

"Tis' this another one of your lessons?" Clarity asked trying to figure out Herra's riddles. They were interrupted by the same guard from earlier. Telling them that Lord and Lady Stark will be seeing us now. Clarity bite her bottom lip in anticipation.
She wouldn't be able to see them, but she can use her nose, ears, and tongue as her main senses. Just as Herra taught her since the massacre of her clan and her father's Snow Cat warriors.

They came to a stop in a feast room. Clarity hearing roaring of cheers, laughter, smelling ale and of arousal. She crinkled her nose in disgust making Herra giggle beside her. "Never have I hated you more Herra." Herra rolled her eyes at Clarity's dramatic
side. "Hush now girl. You are about to meet the Starks... And even a Snow." She furrowed her brows at the last name that was spoken. Snow? She thought deeply in her mind trying to recall if she had learned in her studies about a house that was ever
called Snow. She came up empty as they made their way to lord and lady Stark. "Greetings are in order, my lord and lady stark. This is my apprentice, Clarity Bas daughter of Jatos Bas chief of Clan Bas Reeve and Snow witch Chaos Bas. I wish to speak
somewhere more private." Clarity saw Lord Stark's face grow solemn at the mention of her parents. Lady Stark was looking at Clarity in disbelief that any of the clan members were alive let alone one so young. "Of course. Follow me, my Lady." Lord
Stark kissed his wife's cheek and led Herra away. Clarity was about to follow but the look Herra gave her made her stay put.

"What happened to your eyes, Lady Bas?" Lady Stark asked gaining the young lady's attention. She knew she needed to lie just as Herra told her to, but felt otherwise. "Nothing is wrong with them." Clarity can feel the frustration from Lady Stark. "Then
why the blindfold?" Clarity smiled back at the irritation. "Do you wish me rid of it, my Lady?" Clarity asked both humorous and in curiosity. "Yes I do wish that."

"Then your wish is my command." Clarity spoke swiftly and gently took off the blindfold. Lady Stark looked bewildered whereas Clarity looked back with intrusiveness. "I must say Lady Stark your beauty out weighs Herra's." Lady Stark busted out laughing
as did she. Clarity felt for once felt she didn't have monstrous eyes that frighten everything and everybody that she meets. "Aye, but my eyes do nothing compared to yours. You must have been gifted byyour birth mothers eyes, Lady Bas." Clarity
nodded as did Lady Stark.
