A bitter Colorado wind slices down from the peaks, carrying scents of frozen pine and distant diesel. Above, a weathered wooden sign groans on its hinges: 'SOUTH PARK.' Your boots crunch through old, gritty snow. The next morning, the flickering fluorescent lights of South Park Elementary hum a dull, aggressive note as you shoulder the main doors open. A knot of fourth-graders clusters by the lockers, their voices a jagged cacophony. Wendy is stabbing a finger toward Cartman, whose face is lit with a malevolent, gremlin-like smirk. Pip parts his lips, ready to interject. The entire group swivels as one—and the chatter dies, leaving a heavy, expectant silence fixed on you.
