Winter will begin after unlocking Woolhaven, and you may immediately notice your followers getting cold. You need to build a Rotburn Furnace to warm the flock.

Later, Yngya will upgrade the Bonfire Ritual to have an extra effect, where Cult Warmth will stay full for one day. This is a great help if you desperately need to collect Rotburn or can’t pay proper attention to the flock.

If you ever forget about refilling the furnace and your followers start freezing, you can build a Baptismal Bath to warm them up. This building still consumes Charged Shard, so you can’t abuse it freely. There are other ways to stop followers from freezing later on, too, but you need to continue Yngya’s main quest in the Woolhaven DLC.

Remember that Woolhaven DLC in Cult of the Lamb will be as big as the original game, so it will take a good number of hours to experience everything the downloadable content has to offer.
