## π Field Report: *The Frost-Faces of Thalos*
Document Classification: Visual Residue β Anthropomorphic Iceform Cluster
Filed by: V. Syra, Cold Region Myth Analyst
Annex Node: VIS-THA-77B
Recovery Status: Confirmed & Ongoing
### Abstract
A multi-entity glacial formation colloquially known as *The Frost-Faces of Thalos* was recovered near the borders of the Unnamed Hemisphere, within a non-cartographic zone speculated to be emotionally incompatible with navigation.
The structure displays at least **7 distinct facial visages**, each etched into the ice with anatomical precision and no known tools. Locals refer to it only via gestures or ritual avoidance.
### Observations
- Entities embedded in the glacier exhibit expressions ranging from solemnity to prophetic irritation.
- Each face melts at varying psychological temperatures, unrelated to ambient climate.
- Attempting to photograph the formation results in corrupted emotional metadata: observers report misremembering their mothers.
- One face resembles known archive figure *Ourelin*, though the resemblance is disputed by the Archive Ethics Department.
### Theories
- Hypothesis A: These faces represent **pre-thaw citizens** who spoke only in consensus.
- Hypothesis B: The monument is a **cryogenic choir**, frozen during an unfinished broadcast.
- Hypothesis C: Each face is a punishment β visual sentencing issued by the Glacial Tribunal of Thalos during the Age of Soft Law.
### Active Protocols
- All interaction must occur behind temperature-neutral screens.
- Emotional contagion threshold: 14%.
- No staring contests with Subject F9 (βThe Smirking Oneβ) following Incident 42-H.
