OC-related question: is there anything in particular that Violen misses about living in the Underworld? (Or alternatively, any cool little things he likes in the normal world that can't be found in the Underworld?)
As for other questions: thoughts on freezing rain?
Mostly just the conditions there. The Underworld is located near the center of the Earth, so it’s really hot and, in some places, really dark. Places like that aren’t really that common on the surface, though, so that’s definitely something he’d miss from home.
On the other hand, because the Underworld is so hot, there’s plenty of stuff from the surface world that just can’t really exist in the harsh temperatures. For example, Violen really likes ice cream, but understandably can’t take it into the Underworld with him because it sublimates (i.e. goes straight from a solid to a gas, like dry ice) almost immediately.
And to answer your other question, I can’t stand it. Rain is already a sensory nightmare for me, but it’s like 1000x worse when it’s cold. Easily one of my top 10 least favorite things. Maybe even top 5.
