It's cold in Skyrim the snow is piling up high, and everything is slowly freezing.....lakes....oceans....wildlife....civilization. It's the coldest winter in history in all of Tamriel. There has to be some sort of explanation the temperature doesn't stop rising, all and everything will become solid ice....and it's been like this ever since the evening star. There's only one hope, to make the unending freezing stop, but the dragon born has long vanished....after defeating Alduin.
