What Lies Beneath Storyline

Carpenter Station, June 25th, 2020.
Isolated, Maddening, Beautiful. This station is a new and exciting opportunity for many researchers, built in the center of Wilkes Land, Antarctica to collect data on the newly melting permafrost being caused by increased climate change over the past decade. This site, even in its short lifespan, has given birth to several mysterious stories and rumors regarding the region ranging from reports of unusual whispers blending in with the howling winds of storms, shadowy pale figures arriving at the facilities doorstep claiming to be from a station which simply does not exist, or distant figures watching individuals on expeditions. These sorts of stories are not unusual with these sorts of postings with a whole slew of reasons behind them … Could it have been delirium? Or sleep deprivation coming from the monotony and immense isolation that an Antarctic posting offers. The possibilities are endless, but a lingering feeling still dwells throughout the facility … So many what if’s; what if there was truth to the tales, what if those stories of crewmembers delving into madness were not solely due to the isolation, what if there is something more sinister afoot.
These tales have been ringing in your ears for the last three hours. Some of you might have believed it, some dismissing it as stories manufactured by a bored crew on lonely snowy nights to scare the new fresh faces. You are those new faces, a new crew ranging in skills and talents being brought in for the seasonal changing of the guard and while an aura of uncertainty has whirled through each member of the crew … they are all what if’s, right? Welcome to Carpenter Station, your home for the next three months.​
