Snow stretches endlessly, a blank and unbroken expanse beneath a sky heavy with gray. The silence is absolute, save for the faint whisper of the wind moving across the barren land. In the distance, a castle rises from the earth like a relic of another age—its stone walls crusted with ice, its towers crowned with frost. The structure sits frozen in time, as though the cold itself has claimed it, holding it captive in an eternal winter.
