Some retreats are meant to heal.
Others are meant to burn.
As night settles in, tension fractures for a group of friends and the forest begins to close around them. Something scarred and watchful moves just beyond the firelight-shaped by war, loss, and unfinished grief.
When violence erupts, survival becomes instinct and escape becomes uncertain. At Scorched Lake, the past does not stay buried-and not everyone who survives will leave.
