The landscape, one might notice, is quite unusual.

In one direction, it's quite normal, for snowy tundra areas. Some mountains, a few trees, occasional signs of animal life. Nothing particularly unusual, except for a red glow in the sky in a completely different direction than the sun.

Then, on looking around a little more, it looks like some of the near mountain faces are... oddly flat. Almost vertical, some of them.

A little more examination shows that this is just the most obvious marker of a very flat strip of land. Apart from snowdrifts, this area seems to be perfectly level.

But, of course, one cannot notice the flat strip without seeing what lies beyond it - an utter void. This side has no mountains, no plants or animals - not even any ground, just an upsetting emptiness. A person looking into it hard enough might think he saw strange, purplish-green sparks arcing through it, but those are even more disturbing somehow. The whole thing practically screams 'stay away'.

Jamie's more than pleased to see them. It might not be civilization, per se, but at least it's a start.

"OI!" He waves his arms frantically back and forth, and starts skidding his way through the snow towards the figures. "HULLOO!"
