On the first day of December, snowflakes started to drift down from the sky over the Imperial Capital of the Gafura Empire.
In fact, it should have snowed here long ago, but although the air had been damp and cold recently, the conditions for snow were just missing.
No clouds, no snowflakes!
This time the snowflakes finally started to fall, and on the corner of the table, the headline on the newspaper stated today's temperature in the Imperial Capital—a chilling minus eight degrees!
This weather is rare in Gafura; in previous years, it usually only got this cold around late December, but now it's just the start of December.
Since last winter, everything has changed a bit.
Summer can be deadly hot, and winter can be deadly cold.
An ordinary worker kisses his wife and daughter before putting on his thick winter clothes to leave; as she sees him off, his wife hopes he can swing by the supermarket after work tonight and bring back some food.
