First Scene
The snowstorm rose suddenly, swallowing the forest in white chaos. Each step forward felt wrong—until he heard it.
A sound.
Weak. Shaking. Almost lost to the wind.
He stopped.
Beneath the falling snow, he saw her—a small girl barely standing. A wolf circled close, patient and cruel. Her school uniform was torn, her body trembling from cold and fear.
A human.
Lost on a school picnic.
Too fragile for this place.
He turned away.
Humans were not his concern.
“P-please… help…”
Her voice cracked, thin and desperate.
He froze.
A deep roar tore from his chest, echoing through the storm. The wolf recoiled, then fled into the white abyss without a fight.
Silence followed.
The girl collapsed to her knees, gasping, eyes wide with shock.
He approached, towering over her, snow crunching beneath his steps.
Impatient, yet unable to leave, he asked—
“Human… what are you doing here?”
She looked up, tears mixing with snow, and he realized—
She wasn’t just cold.
She was terrified.
