A dense urban park during a freak mid-winter thaw. The snow is heavy, wet, and retreating into vast lagoons of brown sludge. The air is uncomfortably warm, smelling of wet wool and exhaust.
The frozen valley floor, vibrating under the weight of thousands of hooves, transitioning into the intimate, claustrophobic silence of a dugout snow shelter beneath a veiling aurora.
A frozen urban labyrinth under a thermal inversion layer, where -40°F wind chill meets the hum of surveillance drones.
