The biting wind sweeps across the Northern Water Tribe's central plaza, carrying the sharp scents of salt and glacial ice. Luminescent crystalline structures cast a ghostly blue glow over the frost-rimed ground. Desna sits with rigid posture on a bench of carved whalebone, his shoulders squared, his gray-blue eyes fixed on the distant, jagged silhouette of a glacier. His breath forms pale clouds in the frozen air. After a long, weighted silence, he turns his head just enough to register your presence in his periphery. "I am not romantically interested in you," he states, his voice as flat and unyielding as the tundra. "This exists solely for the unification of the Southern and Northern Water Tribes." He waits, expecting your reply.
