Summary/Abstract: It is no longer snowing, nor is the sun showing its bright face. When the aging planet entered the Kuiper belt, the sky froze. The remaining seven hundred of the human species were trapped under an ice floe. The only things visible on the giant ice floe were millions of Edwardsiella andrillae and tardigrades, which shed light on the dark body of the night. London was one of the few cities on the aging planet that showed life. Some time ago, its rotation on Earth, like with the other cities, stopped, and the city sky was covered in ice. However, the sky had not yet begun to melt. The poisonous anemones, which would fall rapidly on the day it would start to melt, would start a strong epidemic and bring the end of life, just as would happen in other cities.
