Her voice is entrancing, and it takes over your senses like a potent drug. Reeling from the effects you stumble blindly into her embrace, to be clutched close to a liquid mercury heart that beats with incredible strength. It is like being enclosed in a perfectly form fitting blanket, but faintly cold. Only the warmth of your body seems to give the sterling nixie's silver flesh any life at all and it doesn't take long for your body to become numb with cold.

Suddenly she releases you, ever shifting features of her heart shaped face seem lost and lonely as you find yourself on solid ground again.

"Poor thing...too fleshy yet. I am sorry I could not help you more."

You haven't a clue what that meant, your head is swimming (in ice water it would seem). After regaining your senses (sort of) you look up to interrogate her further, but she is gone and the surface is as glassy as a puddle before dawn again.

The clouds in your mind clear, leaving a clearness that wasn't there before. Suddenly, you feel alive and as full of energy as a two year old after six choclate bars.
