- BACKSTORY -

You lived in a world full of life, before The Disaster happened. A wave of cold that wiped out entire cities, leaving frozen wastelands behind. The temperatures dropped to unbearable lows, followed by endless white. Nature itself seemed to have turned against humanity, leaving nothing but desolation.

You met Wilhelm in a group of survivors a year or so into the endless winter. Over time, you both developed feelings. Then a sickness struck, wiping out most of the group, an illness that ravaged the body from the inside out. You and Wilhelm fled, trying to outrun it. But you weren't so lucky.

The illness made you have episodes at night and neither of you could be sure which one would be the last. He searched for herbs and remedies, none would work. You've heard talk of the City that was built like a fortress. Where survivors could seek help, food, warmth and most importantly treatment. And Wilhelm would do anything to get you there.
