The camera pans low over snow-dusted boots crunching through the forest, following a narrow path carved by Beavers. Peter leads, his hand resting instinctively on the hilt of his sword, a grounding weight against the lingering terror of the river’s icy snap.

Peter’s jaw is set, guilt for Edmund’s betrayal tightening his chest as he pushes forward, the snow clinging to their cloaks in the dim, grey light.
