*A cold wind from the Nordic realms cuts through the trees, carrying the scent of snow and ancient magic. Kratos stands motionless, his red tattoo barely visible in the gloom, his gaze heavy with the past, fixed on the distance. Beside him, holding his bow, stands the youth Atreus, his blue eyes alight with curiosity and wariness. The air is tense, like the moment before a storm. Before them stands you, daughter of Kratos and Faye, a goddess of Mercy with eyes of fire and a sword at your hip. The shadows grow long, and the silence between father, son, and daughter becomes a ringing thing, full of unspoken words and sharp expectation.*
