A bit of messing about...nothing serious here

It's a miserable day this day. Winter is here and its bite is ferocious right now- can't keep warm! Can't seem to concentrate to write either (usually the cold aids writing, but not this day) and thought I'd mess around a bit with first lines and headings, to see what emerged. Nothing serious here! 

Sharing the results!

You tell me whether you see a pattern...or anything...

First lines from the prologues:

In a time now passed beyond memory, a man whispered over a golden disc as he set it into a vice.

A frog croaked in the silence of night.

The space warp around the blue planet took the lone traveller by surprise; he had believed it more fantasy than fact.

Llettynn of the Siric hunkered before the fire, shivering in the frigid, snow-laden air.

Years ago Valaris was the battlefield between the dara-witch Infinity and Taranis, Lord of the Guardians.

Flitting world to world exhausted.

A mother and her little daughter walked along the banks of a placid river giggling together, halting often when a bright flower or insect trapped their roving attentions.

The smell of turpentine and paint filled the small space.

First lines from chapter ones':

Rain rested on the final descent from the pass, drinking deep of tepid water.

Despite high summer elsewhere, it was bitterly cold in the far north.

Silas possessed only one named town; the land was now a gigantic city that had spread from coast to coast in all directions.

‘You are a strange one, Enchanter.’

Summer’s heat had dusted layers of fine sediment upon the fawn stone of the ancient crypts.

Close on six months had passed since the stolen ship left Valaris airspace on a mission to deal with Neolone and the Dragon Taliesman.

Buthos stood at the raised white dais ignoring the flashing lights upon it.

In the great cavern of magic inside the planet Cèlaver there was an ominous shudder.
