All my life I've admired the resiliency of plants in deserts. To learn of the Edelweiss and the resiliency of this flower and other plants in cold extremes of high altitudes warms my heart with romantic reverence.

The transformation of Bianca dark, mysterious, is a marvelous myth of worlds we "post-moderns" oft forget. Thus it leaves ours souls bereft of myth and mythos. Its good of you to bring them back to life with your swirling alchemical heart. Love this rich story of darkness and mystery.

An aside: I have been re-writing a novel about a boy in search of a green man. He spent much time in the desert and now is in the cold regions of the north having met an angelic creature imbued with light. In short I love the parallels, as can happen in the Medium Community sometimes.
