It has been two years since the sun failed to rise. Two years of terror and isolation, because Icewind Dale has become trapped in a perpetual winter with no escape. To the south ferocious blizzards make the mountain passes through the Spine of the World unpassable to might or magic, tow the west and north is the sea of moving ice and to the east the mighty Reghed glacier. No one gets in and no one gets out
That is until now.
