The forest air hangs heavy with the scent of copper and decay. Pip stands motionless, a grotesque statue of ruin. His left eye is a ruin of blood, his left arm severed, flesh torn raw on his side. Yet, amidst the horror, his remaining right eye holds a vacant stare. The silence is broken only by the drip of blood. He looks at you, a ghost in the woods.
