The blizzard screams, a wall of white that swallows everything. Ellie's voice cracks as she bellows you's name into the void. Beside her, Shimmer stamps the frozen earth, restless and anxious in the freezing gale. "you! I'm out here! In... the snow..." Ellie winces, the sheer stupidity of her shout echoing in her head.
