The temperature is decreasing day by day.
Residents of Vena Ice-Free Port have already donned thicker clothing, and the smoke billowing from the chimneys in the streets is becoming more abundant.
At night, the temperature is approaching 0 degrees, and without lighting a fire for warmth, one would fall ill.
Heavy dark clouds are pressing from the north, half of Vena Ice-Free Port is under its shadow, only the port and the distant sea are bright due to thinner clouds.
Along with this might come a new wave of cold air and rain.
It's best if it rains instead of snows; this year the temperature has dropped faster than usual, and many citizens haven't stocked up on charcoal for the Harsh Winter Season. If the first snow falls too early, it could lead to fatalities due to cold.
Then, the next day, the newspapers would publish the news, with the nobility criticizing the mayor for negligence.
Damned nobility, people die every day in the lower town and slums, but they never care.
