AspDrago wrote: where did you get that her awakening was in a month? While it isn't the awakening, before meeting up with Lil Miss last episode, a news report said that Salem's Enforcers were all wanted men in Mistral, and that they had been missing since the attack on Haven over a month ago.

Cinder herself managed to crawl her way out of the cavern, and assumedly killed the woman for both her clothes and lien. So unless she stayed in the rainy woods for a month, or in that woman's house for a month, she was encased in ice for a month, slowly thawed out in the water, and then woke up when she couldn't breath.

To be able to survive that long in ice, without Aura as Raven broke it, is impossible. Same for surviving while drowning.

The fact she could only move her claw at first would support the idea it was a month, as the rest of her body went numb from being in ice for so long combined with atrophy when she finally thawed fully due to not being used for a month.
