 At this latitude, the ice is among the thickest on the continent, buried under countless generations of snowfall compacted into solid glacial mass. The air is bitterly dry, drained of moisture by the unrelenting cold, and the wind never truly stops, sweeping across the plateau in great, swirling gusts that carve long, sinuous ridges into the hardened snow. Temperatures remain far below freezing year-round, with only a brief reprieve in the height of summer when the surface softens slightly under the unsetting sun, though never enough to allow melting.
 Storms arise suddenly, reducing visibility to near nothing, as the horizon vanishes into a featureless blur of ice and sky. Sound is muffled by the snow, and in the still moments between gusts of wind, the land is utterly silent, save for the occasional deep groan of ice shifting beneath its own immense weight. No permanent tracks exist here — only the faint, wind-swept traces left by passing storms or the rare expedition that dares to cross this frozen expanse.
