Channel 6 Nocturnis City News Saturday Edition
Saturday Morning Broadcast: Frozen Tides of Nocturnis
Good morning, Nocturnis! It is Friday, January 23, 2026, and I’m reporting live at 7:11 AM. I hope you’ve secured your mooring lines and checked your thermal seals, because the "winter" we were bracing for has arrived with a vengeance unlike anything in the archives.
We may be a water world now, but today, the surface of our endless ocean looks more like a jagged, white wasteland.
The Great Flash-Freeze
The storm hit just after midnight. Because of our high humidity, the "snow" isn't the light, fluffy stuff of old Earth legends. Instead, we’re seeing Slush-Squalls—heavy, freezing rain that turns into crystalline ice the moment it touches a hull or a platform.
Visibility: Near zero. The sea spray is freezing mid-air, creating a "White-Out Mist" that has grounded all local flight-decks.
The Ocean Surface: We are seeing massive "Ice-Floe Bergs" forming in the channels between the primary habitat spires. These aren't just drifting; they are crashing against our foundations with the force of a tectonic shift.
Thermal Warning: Level 4. If you are on an external deck, your gear will glaze over in seconds. Stay inside the pressurized zones.
A Word from the Archives
I’ve reached out to our resident historian to see if the Whispering Isles ever faced a flash-freeze of this magnitude back when the world first transformed.
Professor, in the early years of the 1500 Earth Era or during the initial "Reset," was there ever a record of the Jade Dragon or the Phoenix influencing the climate to this extreme? It feels less like natural meteorology and more like an elemental shift. Is it possible the Black Spire is drawing heat out of the atmosphere?
