Fog hangs in the still, cold air, Shrouding the valley, It faintly whispers in the shadows, So quiet it sounds like wind, But there is no wind around
 * Hidden Lake**

The mighty mountains have a secret, A hidden oasis, It sits undiscovered in a frozen land

Smooth, glassy waters are a cover, A shield from the sharp air, Because below the surface of deep blue, Something hides

An icy kingdom, A frozen monster, An opening to another world, A hidden secret in the midst of its protectors

Snow powders the ground like a sheet Lightening the gloom, Softening edges on the rough rocks, Guarding the secret of the mountains

Innocence is the son of Virtue and Purity, and the younger brother of Sweetness and Obedience. Innocence is a happy and carefree little boy, and his pure mind remains unblemished and free of guilt. Angelic features make up his face, and a halo of curly blonde hair covers his head. Innocence has delicate blue eyes that he looks through with confidence and peace. His small figure goes perfectly with his kind and gentle nature. In his spare time, Innocence likes reading stories, helping around the house, and playing with his two friends; Harmless and Simplicity. Everyone who attends the local church recognises his face, because he loves coming every Sunday morning. There is no television or computer in Innocence’s home, for his parents fear that his mind may be corrupted. But Innocence doesn’t mind, because how can you miss something that you never had? He and his older siblings are homeschooled, so they really have no idea what’s happening out in the rest of the world. But the family’s big farm gives the children plenty of space to run around and play on. Innocence is that delicate clean slate that comes with the start of existence. You only have one chance at keeping a hold of it, and it can disappear in the blink of an eye.
