She was blue-eyed like clear skies and blonde like sandy beaches. Cheekbones high and glistening, splashed with glowing beads of sweat as salted waves crashed against sharp cliff edges. A danger painted as delight.

Her expression was soft as the petal that blossomed in brilliant shades in the bright of her day, though temporary that gentleness was. In the turn of a clocks hand she could become fierce, fiery as a heatwave that sent the weak running and scolded those who remained. A princess of summer, no, a queen.
