A year ago, a deep winter settled across the North of the World, cold winds, snow and blizzards blowing out during the middle of summer and plunging the lands into darkness and despair. Crops failed, trade became near impossible, and the wolves became hungry. Prayers to the Gods failed to bring respite, and purges and witch-burnings by the Inquisition didn’t cut out the canker. But they did find a story. A tale told by a refugee of a small kingdom called Arrendale, at the heart of the ice, ruled by an Snow Queen with a frozen heart who had had turned against the world and her people, her anger blowing out as a blizzard of ice from her mountain redoubt. Brave adventurers, you have been commissioned to find out what has happened and put the world to rights, if you dare.
