  1. The Fields: Outside Nomosa, there are fields of green grass, shrouded in heavy and thick fog. In between the fields, there are small brooks with tiny amounts of water always pouring away from the city. There are no trees, no tall bushes or grass. There are no farmhouses or barns. You can travel along the highway for hours, the potholes getting worse as you go before the road eventually disappears completely and there is just a dirt road that gets narrower and narrower. If you continue long enough, the road will come back and lead you back to the city. That is assuming that you can avoid the Frosts long enough.
  2. Frosts only live outside the city. They walk the fields and can smell through the fog. They’re very thin and tall and have very long, thin limbs. Their skin is black except their face which is white. They have no eyes, only sockets where they used to be and dried blood around them. Their mouth is permanently elongated down, such that they cannot close it. They are deathly cold. The only way to know if one is near you is if the temperature is dropping. The grass around you will begin to curl up with ice, nearby brooks freeze over. The further from the city you go, the more aggressive they become and the thicker the fog becomes. If they choose to set upon you, you will hear nothing from them but the crunch of frozen grass beneath their feet. They stalk slowly until they are at the edge of your vision, just beyond the far reaches of the fog. To look at one induces horrific pain in them. Their long jaws begin to shudder in pain as gusts of violent icy wind race through their mouth and blow past your ears, the harsh sound and cold making you shudder. Then they leap towards you, clawing at your face until they find your eyes, which they forcibly remove.
  3. Denizens and Lopers tend to stay outside of the fields, partly because passing through the suburbs or the factory to reach it is against their nature to begin with. Workmen and Drones stick to the highways and dirt roads, rarely straying into the fields. Frosts tend not to be provoked by them. At night, the Frosts are less aggressive, but they are much colder to the point of hypothermia.
