COLD WORLD

"As you step into the eerie moonlit forest, a heavy mist clings to your clothes, sending a shiver down your spine. The trees loom overhead like silent sentinels, their gnarled branches twisting into grotesque shapes that seem to clutch at the very air you breathe. Shadows dance at the edge of your vision, and strange whispers murmur through the leaves.

The path ahead appears treacherous, overgrown with thorns and littered with the remnants of those who came before you. Broken lanterns cast feeble beams of light, revealing gnawed bones and torn clothing. You hear distant cries, the desperate pleas of others who had ventured into this nightmarish realm.

You realize that in this forsaken place, survival is not guaranteed. Every rustle in the underbrush could be your doom, and every shadow could conceal unspeakable horrors. Your heart races as you take your first steps, knowing that the line between reality and nightmare has blurred, and your fate rests in your ability to navigate the haunted woods and confront the malevolent forces that dwell within."
