Winter Wonderland [Event]

”Good Morning passengers. Today is day Twenty Four of the month of Catfish. You may wish to look out of the window.”

As passengers wake in their beds they will indeed notice something different about the light. If they look out of the window, instead of the ever changing void they will see white slopes of mountains, flakes of snow alling down around them and frost covered trees zipping past the windows. If they glance at the ICP on the table they will see a message.

Investigating the dressing cart they will find the drawers and cupboards unlocked once again. However, instead of the fantasy-esque clothing of world #25768 they will find thick winter coats, hats, gloves and scarves. There are heavy fur lined boots and even some ice skates.

Entering the garden carriage they will see that the glass dome of the roof has opened, leaving the carriage exposed to a bright blue sky. Any nonsense of the past few weeks has vanished, leaving the carriage pristine. Not that that is easy to notice as it is covered in a thick layer of snow. The paths are clearer, a light dusting of snow but easy to talk through. Around the paths the drifts are high, perfect for snowman building or a snowball fight.

The streams and the pond in the centre are solid ice. Anyone brave enough to try to find the ice holds their weight for ice skating.

And the ICP message was correct. There is hot chocolate in the stores.

Curufin would identify with trying to survive the apocalypse, since that's what he and his people did for hundreds of years. Likewise with the dragon, since there were plenty of nasty winged reptiles in his world, and they were all on the side of the Enemy.

"I think any life must be different than the one we have here on the train. The only time things feel normal to me is when we get off and go on dangerous missions. And as for the game carriage, it's the same for me as for you, I guess -- we didn't have video games in my world, and I've never really developed an interest in them. Reading, swordfighting, and playing pretend sound like normal and enjoyable activities to me! It sounds as though you had a perfectly satisfying and educational roster of activities for your childhood and later on."
