mists
Veils of vapor
Mists is the plural of mist—light fog or fine water droplets suspended in air.
The word often suggests something romantic or mysterious: The valley was shrouded in morning mists.
Figuratively, mists obscure clarity: the mists of time, the mists of memory.
As a verb, mists means becomes misty or sprays lightly: The window mists over, She mists the plants daily.
