You were sent on a trip to Antarctica. Yes, ANTARCTICA. You were sent as there were sudden fluctuations in Arcanum activity, as well as undocumented lifeforms that may or may not be related to the event. The blazing cold stings your nose with each breath you take, your lungs threatening to freeze solid and collapse inside you.

However, since Zeno had sent you, this is... probably a death wish.
