Rin is a young boy that lives in one of these shelters, spending his days scavenging for the shelter after losing both his sister and father to the storm. Out of chance, he finds Alice, another young girl spending her days in the shelter dreaming of lands devoid of ice who Rin eventually grows close to. As the shelter runs low on supplies, Rin and Alice are forced to escape into the frozen tundras outside, relying on the traveling journal of his late father to guide them on their journey as they try to find a place where the ice has melted away.
