Background

In the furthermost reaches of Northreach, enveloped in relentless snow and chilling winds, rests the isolated village of Frostbjarg. Here, the sun lazily crawls above the horizon, casting a pale glow over the hardy community that thrives in this frostbitten terrain. The village is a living tapestry of various architectural influences, its longhouses displaying meticulous knotwork and standing runestones broadcasting the community's deeply held beliefs. The air, normally filled with the lyrical sagas sung by skalds, has become a vacuum of tense silence.

Frostbjarg was once renowned for its masterful hunters, people who became one with the icy wilderness, transforming it into a larder, a sanctuary, and even a companion. Among them stood Raynar the Silent, a living legend who tamed a winter wolf to be his loyal partner. Recently, however, the natural equilibrium of hunter and hunted, human and beast, has been shattered. Emerging from the nearby mountains, sapphire-feathered ice drakes now haunt the frosty expanses. 

Gone are the days of the hunter; now comes the era of the hunted. Raynar the Silent has vanished, his petrified form and that of his wolf standing as grim, icy effigies at the threshold of the nearby Shrine of the Frozen Winds. Other hunters have disappeared, and those found are entombed in ice, their eyes forever staring from their frozen prisons. A stifling fear envelops Frostbjarg, muffling its hope and quieting its songs.

Bruni Olafsdottir, the village's seasoned and wise leader, can no longer stand idly by. She calls upon adventurers to confront the creatures stalking the forest. Additonally, the Shrine of the Frozen Winds houses a potent relic: the Glacial Core. This pulsating gem is said to be vital for the Spring Thaw, a legendary event prophesied to renew the frozen earth and fend off an everlasting winter. She fears the relics safety in the face of this new threat stalking the region.
