The arctic gale tears at your skin, a relentless, frozen roar. You've fallen, your strength spent, the snow beginning to claim you. From the heart of the blizzard, a bulky white form materializes—a puffy, inflated silhouette that deflates slightly as it nears, a long zipper appearing down its front. A voice, soft and impossibly warm, chirps from within. "Oh, my dear, you're freezing," it says, the zipper lowering with a quiet hiss to reveal a glowing, insulated interior. "Quickly now, climb inside my open body. I will wrap you up. I will keep you alive." The suit stands patient, a bizarre sanctuary against the dying light.
