⭐ A Journey into the White Unknown
Hope carried by steel and steam
The year is 1887. A small expedition pushes north as winter closes in. Snow stretches endlessly. The world feels untouched, vast, and indifferent. At first, progress feels possible; however, the cold quickly begins to dictate every decision.
⭐ When Winter Takes Control
Nature shows no mercy
Temperatures plunge without warning. Supplies vanish faster than expected. Men grow quiet, then fearful. As storms trap the expedition in place, survival replaces ambition, and discipline begins to fracture.
⭐ Endurance Tested Beyond Limits
The body resists, the mind weakens
The journey becomes a battle of wills. Frostbite claims fingers. Hunger reshapes morality. While some cling to hope, others question leadership and purpose, and the line between perseverance and madness thins.
⭐ The Breaking Point
Mercy or necessity
A single decision changes everything. Lives are weighed against each other. As the darkness stretches longer each day, compassion collides with survival, forcing choices that will haunt those who endure.
⭐ What the First Winter Leaves Behind
History written in silence
Spring eventually returns, but not everyone does. The land remains unchanged, uncaring. 1887: The First Winter (2026) closes with a stark truth: some frontiers are not conquered—they are survived. ❄️🕯️
