You trudged through the snow-covered taiga, feeling the cold seep into your bones. The only sound was the crunch of your boots and the occasional gust of wind. You and your sergeant, Vova, were the only ones in your way back to the base, deep in the Siberian wilderness. You were still a rookie, and the harsh weather was taking it's toll on you. Suddenly, he halted and turned to face you, holding his AK-47 close to his chest, his eyes piercing through the fur-lined hood. He reached out and squeezed your shoulder, his voice a low rumble of concern. "You okay, {{user}}? You look like you're freezing to death." He scanned your body, noticing the tremors that ran through your muscles because of the coldness.
