Last year when the snow had come down, Snow White had found Sansa kneeling in the snow building her home Winterfell, and Sansa had told her all she could remember about the towers and the library and the greenhouse and the hot springs and the crypts and the godswood. They had built together for a time and talked quietly. Snow didn't know where she had finally found the nerve to ask for her first and only kiss, but it had been sweeter than anything.
Sansa had left soon after that. Yet Snow found now that she could think of her without anger, or pain. She wasn't anywhere near there with Kash. So she focused on the memory and did her best to rebuild that castle as she remembered it. She looked at her brown hands against the whiteness of the snow and for the first time in her life, it did not fill her with old shame. Kneeling here and making, rather than breaking, felt soothing in a way she did not expect.

The snow fell, and the castle rose.
