• Album Notes •
When a vast monolith from deep space crashes into Earth and plunges the planet into a new ice age, a fanatical cult devoted to a timeless entity known as the Void Star rises amid the apocalyptic chaos. Opposing them are the Ice Tribes—human survivors adapted to the dark, frozen world. Their leader, Cala Garin, is the last living descendant of an ancient race known as the Sorn. War erupts between the Cult and Frostborne survivors as Earth is consumed by black storms and endless blizzards, the world reduced to a frozen wasteland.
As the Void Star hurtles through deep space toward the Monolith, time runs short for Cala and her resistance. When an unexpected signal begins transmitting from the far northern frontier, she gathers her strongest allies and leads a team northbound toward its source. Driven by hope, they vanish into the endless ice—unaware of who, or what, awaits them.
