The forest holds its breath. Smoke coils from the twisted fuselage, painting the twilight in gray. Jet fuel bites the air, mixing with the scent of wet earth. A man coughs in the haze; a woman prays on her knees, her voice trembling against the wind. The trees stand like silent judges, endless and dark. No roads. No signal. Just the groan of cooling metal and the crackle of dying fire. The cold bites deeper as the light fails. Yet, amidst the ruin, you draw breath. Against all odds, you are alive.
