Daniel, Lila, and Jonas struggle across a vast, snowbound plateau, pursued by a mysterious, reality-bending entity. Exhausted and disoriented, they rely on focus, willpower, and teamwork to navigate treacherous snowdrifts, ice, and shifting terrain. After a desperate sprint to a ridge, they descend into a valley, temporarily out of reach of the entity. Though alive, they mourn Sarah’s loss and recognize survival in the white world is fragile, earned step by step, under the constant gaze of the patient, looming entity.
