Scene 1: A World Shrouded in Ice
Snow falls softly, bnketing the earth in an endless sea of white. The air is thick with the chill, and the trees, frozen in pce, stand like eerie shadows, their branches twisting like skeletal arms reaching out in silence. The wind howls, sending shards of ice dancing through the air. The world holds its breath, waiting for the storm.
Scene 2: A Man Running Through the Storm
A man stumbles through the snow, his body weighed down by exhaustion. His tattered cloak, heavy with frost, flutters in the wind as he struggles to move forward. In his arms, he clutches a small child wrapped tightly in a thick bnket. His face is a canvas of pain, the gash across his cheek still fresh, and his eyes burn with a mixture of terror and determination.
Man (breathing heavily): "I have to reach him… If I don’t… it’s over."
Scene 3: A Cry in the Darkness
In the distance, a scream rips through the air, splitting the quiet night. The fog before him stirs, revealing a dark figure floating above the ground. It is surrounded by an unnatural aura, its presence devouring the light as it closes in.

Scene 6: The Colpse of Ice
The man is violently thrown back, his body crashing into a jagged rock. Blood trickles from his mouth, yet a defiant smile forms on his lips. With a trembling hand, he raises it, and in that moment, the earth beneath them begins to quake.
Man: "If you want the child… you’ll have to follow him to hell!"
Scene 7: Falling into the Abyss
The ground splits open, revealing a deep chasm filled with swirling fog and falling shards of ice. The child slides toward the edge, his tiny form surrounded by floating shards of ice that seem to protect him. Then, without warning, he tumbles into the darkness below.
Scene 8: The Calm After the Storm
The chaos settles. The man falls to his knees, a faint smile still on his lips as blood seeps from his head. The shadowed figure stares down into the abyss, then slowly disappears into the storm.
