Roz moves quickly across the cold, treeless tundra. She sees a man from afar but stays distant to avoid scaring him. Roz sees the Northern Lights and glaciers in the distance as night falls.
The glacier’s slippery, rocky surface isn’t safe for Roz, so she climbs atop a cliff to better view the landscape. As she starts trekking across the glacier, the frozen land captivates her attention. Roz slips and falls into a glacial melt lake. She begins swimming across the lake to safety. Suddenly, Roz feels the lake sinking and falls through a crevasse into an ice cave. Roz calls out for help, but only the echo of her voice answers her. She sees a mouse preserved in the ice cave and wonders how long it has been there. After days of trekking through the ice cave, Roz uses her hands like ice axes to carve an escape hatch. She emerges onto the coast just as part of the iceberg calves into the northern ocean, barely escaping the ensuing tidal wave.
