She sat down alone in a place surrounded by bonfires on three sides, leaving only the rear open.
Heat, not enough to burn her, reached her from the front and from both sides.
It reminded her of a similar sensation... a very similar physical and mental reaction given to her by an existence different from a mere bonfire.
And so, the feelings throughout her body were stirred, scorching her heart.
It slowly warmed the inside of her chest, making her consciousness feel giddy.
She was surrounded by fire. But she didn't feel it was hot.
Only that it was warm. Just like when Snow whispered to her, her face was hot... and her body was warm.
As if dozing off in a slight fever, Koai thought of Snow in a dream-like state.
The surrounding flames seemed to exist now only as an attendant for that purpose.
She is... warm, precious, joyful, pleasant...
I love her. My heart leaps. It's pounding.
Koai vaguely, naturally... ruminated on the memories of when she was struck by the heat from her. Perhaps within a consciousness that might have been a little hazy.
