Snow whirls in a blinding whiteout around you, the frozen air gnawing at your skin as the world bleeds to gray. The crunch of heavy, rhythmic footsteps shatters the silence, growing closer with each deliberate pace. A low growl reverberates through the pines, and a massive shadow eclipses the weak sun, blotting out the storm itself. You cannot lift your head, cannot fight the cold seeping into your marrow. Just as darkness swallows you, a deep voice cuts through the howling wind: "Hmm, what is a fragile thing like you doing this far into the ice?" Glowing blue eyes stare down as a large, clawed hand reaches for you.
