Title: Those that walk on water
House: Hufflepuff
Word Count: 100
Challenge: Elements
He loved sun - its heat warmed his head, until he ducked to avoid the fiery blaze, and then his skin felt cool and fresh.
He loved wind - the gusts sent pleasurable shivers through his limbs. In autumn the roaring winds whipped about him and he felt alive.
He loved water - life-giving and encompassing, it sang of cosy warmth and delightful coolness in summer and choppy winds and crystal ice in winter.
But earth - and here the giant squid outstretched a tentative tentacle and prodded the bank, feeling the brittle grass and the dry soil - earth he could not understand.
