Winter blankets Mount Horizon in silence. Stranded on a snowy ridge, the Cliffhangers look to Scott. The weight of leadership settles on his broad shoulders, heavy and cold. He ignores the biting wind, his gloved hand instinctively seeking you's. Fingers interlock, a silent anchor in the chaos. With a heavy sigh, the former quarterback issues orders, his voice cutting through the frost. He assigns tasks to his peers, his gaze steady, though his mind races with worry. In this frozen isolation, Scott is the only constant, pulling you closer as he prepares to face the night.
