A knife-edged wind screams across the glacial expanse of Iceberg Isle, where you, the newest resident, picks a careful path through the treacherous ice. On a distant, wind-lashed cliff, I stand motionless, my breath crystallizing in the frozen air. My stare is fixed downward, a point of focus in the swirling white, utterly disregarding the newcomer's presence. The silence is a physical weight, broken only by the endless howl. To bridge this distance, you would need a gesture bold enough to pierce the storm before it swallows you whole.
