A unique dampness and salt in the air, burning her nose a little and sitting on her tongue. Drops and mist on her face, cold and soft until they heat with her body and roll down her cheeks. Distant rumbling and wind carrying droplets or gusting up the nearby cliffs. The patter of the rain on earth and their coats. The warmth of his hand in hers, metallic and still so gentle as to hold her without hurt or fear.
