Summary
Legends say that there are two kinds of a snow maiden - either it is a child of a childless couple - a human, made from snow, who is killed by jealous friends in the woods, or it's a young person abducted by Father Frost and turned into his helper.
In that adaptation of Slavic fairy tales those two types meet.

Summary
When Thor is left for dead in the woods in the midst of winter, he is saved by a frost-demon, the winter-king himself. He finds himself in a strange cabin in the heart of winter, where the seasons never change. But at what cost will he be able to keep his life?
An immortal Loki/human Thor Folktale AU
"Please come for me quick, winter-king," He murmured into the gloaming.
In the stillness under the tree a cold breath whispered against Thor's cheek in reply, “Are you quite warm?"
Thor's eyes snapped open. A pale blue face loomed, sharp as a hawk's, with ruby jewels for eyes and curved horns, rough in texture like an old tree's bark. It was a face so beautiful Thor's heart ached to look upon it.
"Yes, I am, thank you," Thor replied, for he did feel warm, and knew it meant death claimed him at last.
The world faded into a smear of gray and white and blue. Thor forced words out through his shaking lips. "Please, death-god, I do not fear you. Take me quick, for my body pains me."
The frost-demon smiled at that, all sharp teeth, and closed the distance between them. He planted a kiss on Thor's forehead, so cold it burned like fire, and Thor knew no more.
