Opening sample
First pass from the workshop. Not the ending.
The air bites like a thousand tiny needles, each piercing the skin with a sharp, cold sting. You step outside, your breath frosting before your eyes, and the world narrows to a gray, icy expanse. The February Gap looms, a month where the days are short, the nights are long, and the landscape seems to hold its breath. This is the season that tests the very fibers of your being, where every day feels like a struggle to keep your head above the relentless cold. The crunch of snow underfoot is the only sound, a muffled, almost mechanical noise that echoes through the barren trees.
