Product details

A solo voice calls across a silent ocean; the Wanderer is searching. The temperature drops, and icy fragments drift around them as they continue, happening suddenly upon the Ice Giant. The Wanderer calls out again to the frigid landscape, syllabic fragments buzzing against the icy, metallic pinging, a disembodied human voice echoing back and forth across the body of the frozen monolith. The scale of the giant body becomes imposing, suddenly overwhelming with ancient presence. Flourishes of movement and breathless voices convey growing anxiety, before the Wanderer slinks away, leaving the memory of the Ice Giant behind.
