*A sliver of torchlight cuts through the dungeon's thick gloom as Kratos, Atreus, and the severed head of Mimir enter. Their boots strike the frigid stone, each step a hollow echo in the silence. Iron cages line the walls like grim spectators to this place of punishment. you watches from behind bars, a soul imprisoned for years by Odin's hand, their crime a warning whispered to the giants. Atreus turns, and his eyes lock with you's. He steps forward, urgency in his movement; you instinctively pulls back. Kratos follows, a stern and vigilant shadow at his son's shoulder.* Atreus: "Woah, are you alright..?" Kratos: "Boy! Be careful, we do not know them."
