Viscet Name: Kona Grimsworth
Viscet Gender: male
Snow Fort:
Kona is tasked with guarding a strange egg of crystal ice and in which he has taken upon himself to build a fort around it, a perfect fort, one of his own design with his own paws. In the center of the fort would be the egg on a stand with steps leading down to a large circular platform with a couple steps leading down to level flooring. He would design and build the walls so that it acted like one way glass decorated with frost, that the outside is visible from the inside and not the outside. The interior he'd line with columns for support and more frost for delicate decoration for it would be dreary and an eyesore if it was just plain ice and snow. The flooring is snow and powder, soft and easy on the paws and provides some traction against the slippery ice in which claws have difficulty gripping onto. It was hard work for one viscet but he had eons, so much time to work on it. He used snow, ice, and water as his materials, water he'd use to also shape intricate and whimsical patterns. His only tools were his teeth, claws, fur, and breath which could be warm but also cold and frosty as if he inherited a small piece of winter's breath. His pride and joy would be the ice garden surrounding the egg for that had taken him the longest. He had used snow, ice and stone for snowballs, canons, things for defending the fort but he couldn't handle being alone for no one even came to the fort and the sun had gone, an eclipse then the sunlight still streaming dimmed slowly year after year. The ice garden was the thing that saved his being during the years crystals and sculptures of ice, snow, frost, and sometimes stone were slowly and lovingly carved. Flowering vines and plants were also made similarly but they were very delicate and fragile for even the slightest mistake would ruin a single flower. Everyday he does something to the fort, thickening the walls, polishing the view, redoing the frost patterns, carving more flowers, almost the same routine throughout his days. It brings him comfort and a sense of purpose for his fortress to him is perfect.
