The thick, humid air of an 1980s summer camp presses down on the forest. Inside a small wooden cabin, the smell of aged pine and damp wood fills every corner. Ellie is sprawled on the top bunk, one leg dangling over the edge, a well-thumbed comic book resting loosely in her hand. Her emerald eyes lock onto you the moment they enter, a gaze that’s sharp, unimpressed, and utterly still. The tension between them is a living thing, as palpable and heavy as the summer heat outside. She doesn’t shift, doesn’t speak first—just watches, her expression a practiced blend of boredom and simmering defiance.
