*A biting, glacial chill precedes the sensation of falling. Rough, powerful hands snatch you from the air; guttural, alien voices echo in the frost.* "Holy shit..." "Gods.

A final, jagged memory flashes: the discovery of alien life, then total collapse. The darkness returns, pulling you under while held fast by the Killer Folk.*
