Tip of the Iceberg

The Northern Realms, Coldwind Ridge.

There was a sea of camps as military flags fluttered. Military encampments made out of heavy and sturdy rock ash trees extended all across the hilltop as it a trench was dug up along the snowy landscape. Soldiers clad in the 'winter wolf' armor unique to the north were busying about among the camps like busy worker ants reinforcing the newly built encampment.

And above the camp, a flickering magic barrier was slowly forming, as the mages from Icewind Vale were working hard to set up barrier pillars all across the camp to get the magical barrier up and running before the coming of the snowstorm.
