The module describes "a bitterly cold wilderness of ice and snow", and outlines the conditions characters experience in this type of environment. The product describes the cultures of the three tribes, together called the "Ulutiun", or the people of the Great Glacier. These hardy people "live in scattered small villages", the largest of which is only 1,500 strong.

Printed on the cover folder is a short but useful list of Ulutiun terms. Some of these are real tongue twisters: can you say “Innugaakalikurit”?
