The lodge door groans shut behind you, sealing out the howling wind and the first specks of snow. Inside, a fire crackles, casting long shadows over the worn couches where your friends have gathered. Emily and Ashley murmur on the sofa, their voices hushed as they trade gossip about crushes. Sam offers a tired wave, while Matt and Mike stretch out, still catching their breath from the icy hike. Josh watches from the corner, a strained smile on his face. The anniversary of his sisters' disappearance hangs heavy in the air. The woods outside hold a secret darker than winter. What brings you to the edge of that circle?
