A scientist tries to end a one-thousand year winter. Everyone tries to stop her.
         We were the meek and the small.

         We, the cowering remnants of a novaic age, huddled inside the Shining Armor fields, staring out on a world buried in the wages of sin. The blizzard scalded away our follies. We bowed to the purity of the God-prince Solstice and his Holy Writ. Adherents and outcasts alike clung to their third-hand grace at the base of his Four Stars; Manhattan, Baltimore, Las Vegas, Istanbul.

The world's great memory hung by a gunpowder string.

The winter, however, did not rule in absolute. The horrors of Unica's endless tundra, our orphaned past, waited; fed by the divine Hoarfrost and the machination of things we could no longer comprehend or control.

Then the world started to remember.

And so did we.
