The Farthest Frost
By @Francine
The world is burning, consumed by a silent, creeping wildfire known as the Sun-scourge. Cities ash to dust, and humanity's blood boils within their veins. But I, Jason, carry a quiet, terrible duty. I am the only person in existence who can endure the Primeval Glaciers. To save my dying sister and the scorched remnants of my home, I must trek into the absolute zero of the frozen void to harvest the world’s last remaining frost-cores. As Jason, I felt the ice bite into my flesh, a numbing agony that should have killed me, yet my body adapts. Armed with the 'Endless Winter' system, I alone can convert extreme freezing cold into pure, defensive mana. But my gentle nature is my greatest threat; I hesitate to freeze my foes, fearing I will become as cold and lifeless as the wastes I traverse. Only I, Jason, can walk this frozen path, where every breath is an agonizing test of pure endurance.
