Winter Arc — Challenge

The rules of the season

I

The Oath

Before departure, you declare your challenge: an activity and a quota of 3 to 7 sessions per week. You set your own bar. Once the season starts, the quota never goes down — it can only go up.

II

The Timer

Every session is lived in real time: you start the timer at the beginning, stop it at the end (20 minutes minimum), and tell in one sentence what you did. No after-the-fact logging. Only one session counts per day — the rest is bonus.

III

The Wall

Your sessions are carved under your pseudonym, in front of the whole cohort. Never your real name. The Wall is member-only — and it breathes as long as you hold.

IV

The Freeze

Sunday 23:59: a week under your quota = a Freeze. Public, final, displayed next to your pseudonym until the season ends. Nobody decides: the rule applies on its own.

V

The Fall

At the third Freeze, you fall: thrown overboard, swallowed by the Abyss with the date of your fall. You keep access to the Wall and the pack until 29 December — but you watch your drakkar finish without you. No catching up before the next season.

The Oath patch

On 29 December, those who hold receive the embroidered patch of the season, at the level of their oath — a “5 / 7” is not a “7 / 7”. Shipped to their door, given to every Survivor. It cannot be bought. It is carved once per winter.

The crossing

You don't face winter alone. At sign-up you choose your viking — shieldmaiden or warrior: it represents you for the 90 days. As soon as your oath is sealed, you board a drakkar of 50 bearing an ancient name — Sleipnir, Valkyrja, Yggdrasil… — bound for Valhalla, 13 weeks of sea away. Your ship's badge says which crew you belong to, everywhere you speak.

The ship's rule is simple: it arrives if it is never empty. Every oath kept keeps it afloat; every Fall throws a viking overboard, into the Abyss. If the whole crew falls, the drakkar sinks with them. Those who land in Valhalla on 29 December are the Survivors — oath patch in hand.

And we talk. Two channels in the app: the chat of the whole fleet, and your ship's own — reserved for the 50 of your drakkar. Under pseudonyms, members only, nothing else.

Nine programs. Thirteen weeks. Choose your weapon.

Each program is a standardised 13-week training plan, built around your frequency. You can buy several — a discount applies from the second one. Buying a program is your entry into the season.

Prices will be carved here when sales open. One-time card payment, prices incl. VAT, no subscription, no hidden fees. The multi-program discount shows in the summary, before payment. Programs are currently written in French — English versions are on the way.

What the purchase includes — your program(s) of 13 weeks, and full access to Season 1 from 1 October to 29 December 2026: the app (the Wall, the timer, the board, your drakkar and its fleet, the Abyss), the community, the season's events, and your oath patch if you finish.

You can back out until the last evening. Free cancellation and full refund until 30 September 2026, 23:59 — on top of your legal 14-day withdrawal right. From 1 October, the season starts: it is sealed. Full terms (courtesy translation — the French version is binding).

Adults only. Programs are standardised content, with no individual coaching — not medical advice.

Hard on you. Not against you.

The season rewards consistency, not injury. The product ships with non-negotiable safeguards: a 7-day Recovery pause (one per season, no proof required) that neutralises your week in case of illness or a hard blow; the Wintered status (exit on medical certificate, no Abyss, with a credit on the next season); an alert beyond 5 sessions per week; and a simple reminder: in case of pain, see a doctor — no game rule comes before your health. Before signing up, you complete a pre-exercise health self-assessment (in France, the official QS-SPORT questionnaire — or an equivalent in your country).

FAQ

What if I get sick or injured?

The Recovery pause neutralises a full week, once per season, on simple declaration. If it's more serious, the Wintered status (medical certificate) takes you out of the season without the Abyss, with a 100% credit on a future season. Training injured isn't discipline, it's foolishness — and the game is built to never ask it of you.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, two mechanisms: your legal 14-day withdrawal right after purchase, and our commercial cancellation — free, no reason needed, until 30 September at 23:59. After the season departs, the ticket is earned (the service is delivered in full, whether you fall or not) — details in the Terms (courtesy translation), health edge-cases included.

How do you know I'm not lying?

The timer starts and stops live — impossible to log after the fact, and validating a fake session means letting a timer run 20 to 45 minutes, every day of your quota, for 13 weeks. Inconsistencies are detected, members can report, and blatant fraud earns a Fall marked “Perjury”. We take your word — and we don't forget to check.

Will my name be displayed publicly?

Never your real name: only the pseudonym you choose, on a member-only Wall. You can request anonymisation of your display at any time, effective within 72 h, with no effect on the game.

What exactly am I paying for?

One or several 13-week training programs (fixed prices incl. VAT, announced when sales open, discount from the second program) — and with them, entry into the season: the app, the Wall, your drakkar, the board, the events, the Abyss and your oath patch if you survive. No subscription, no hidden sale. Programs are standardised plans: your sessions remain your own.

Do I have to follow the program to the letter to validate sessions?

No. The oath is about your frequency, not the content: any timed session of at least 20 minutes counts, whatever the activity. The program is your battle plan; the timer is your judge.

Is the site available in English?

Yes — the app itself is fully bilingual (switch language top right), and a courtesy translation of the Terms is available. Training programs and the other legal documents are currently in French; the French legal version is always the binding one.

The cold does not negotiate.

Season 1: 1 October → 29 December 2026. Oaths are sealed by 30 September, 23:59.
