The self-proclaimed prophets who shout out Ithlinne's words mistake stars reflected in a still pond for the sky. For the White Frost is no legend or mythical apocalypse. It is a natural phenomenon that can be described in the dry yet precise language of scholarship.

->The time is five years to go before the end of the earth. It has been announced that the world will end because of lack of natural resources. Ziggy is in a position where all the kids have access to things that they thought they wanted. The older people have lost all touch with reality and the kids are left on their own to plunder anything. Ziggy was in a rock-and-roll band and the kids no longer want rock-and-roll. There's no electricity to play it. Ziggy's adviser tells him to collect news and sing it, 'cause there is no news. So Ziggy does this and there is terrible news. "All The Young Dudes" is a song about this news. It's no hymn to the youth as people thought. It is completely the opposite...The end comes when the infinites arrive. They really are a black hole, but I've made them people because it would be very hard to explain a black hole on stage...Ziggy is advised in a dream by the infinites to write the coming of a Starman, so he writes "Starman", which is the first news of hope that the people have heard. So they latch onto it immediately...The starmen that he is talking about are called the infinites, and they are black-hole jumpers. Ziggy has been talking about this amazing spaceman who will be coming down to save the earth. They arrive somewhere in Greenwich Village. They don't have a care in the world and are of no possible use to us. They just happened to stumble into our universe by black hole jumping. Their whole life is travelling from universe to universe. In the stage show, one of them resembles Brando, another one is a Black New Yorker. I even have one called Queenie, the Infinite Fox...Now Ziggy starts to believe in all this himself and thinks himself a prophet of the future starmen. He takes himself up to the incredible spiritual heights and is kept alive by his disciples. When the infinites arrive, they take bits of Ziggy to make them real because in their original state they are anti-matter and cannot exist in our world. And they tear him to pieces on stage during the song "Rock 'N' Roll Suicide". As soon as Ziggy dies on stage the infinites take his elements and make themselves visible.

When humanity first escaped the confines of Earth and began exploring the universe, they brought with them, like so many others before, an earnest hope that some grand understanding or purpose might be found in the darkness. But the galaxy raised only more questions, the greatest of which came from the ruins of a species that came to be known as the [[{{Precursors}} Forerunners]]. How a race of such sophistication and power could disappear in an instant, and the purpose of the mysterious relics they left behind, would lead to war and carnage by those who followed them. But the answer would be far worse than this question, for it came in the form of [[TheVirus the Flood]].

-> ''The thing that makes Lovecraftian Horror and the thing that's kept it popular is this overwhelming fear of the unknown; a concept that easily translates even as "the unknown" changes wiht social and scientific developments. Even though [[ValuesDissonance Lovecraft's works haven't aged at all]], the underlying principle is sound. If you don't fully understand something you can interpellate existential horror and turn ever mystery into a nightmare of TingsManWasNotMeantToKnow. And separate from that, the aesthetic of horror he chose is also pretty effective on its own. Lovecraft's overwhelming [[EldritchOceanAbyss fear of the ocean]] produced a memorable and [[BodyHorror viscerally nasty]] horror aesthetic grounded in slime and rot that was far removed from the stone-cold sterility of the previous GothicHorror genre.''
