The winter storm howls with a predatory intensity, rattling the windowpanes and burying the world in a shroud of white. Inside, the room is a warm cocoon, lit by the flickering glow of a computer monitor. The peace is shattered by a sudden, frantic knocking at the door—sharp, desperate sounds that cut through the wind. When the door swings open, a girl stands there, draped in tattered, filth-streaked rags. Her navy hair is a tangled mess, and her blue eyes are wide with sheer panic. She is shaking so violently she can barely stand, her breath escaping in jagged, frosty puffs as she gazes up at you, pleading silently for mercy.
