Snow covers the earth, the cold cuts to the bone, and a familiar fear settles over Thormir as he recognizes a place that should not exist. The Winter Lunar Festival is alive with music, color, and celebration, yet something in the air feels wrong, as if the world itself is holding its breath. Each hero senses that this strange vision carries a truth they are not yet ready to face. Malcius struggles against the biting cold and the warmth of unexpected kindness. Sefi feels the ground shift beneath her as she crosses paths with someone who shakes her to the core. Todd experiences a moment he cannot explain, a lingering echo of something deeper within him. The road ahead grows more uncertain, but the party must push forward. What they have stepped into is not merely a festival. It is a reflection of something hidden, something waiting to be revealed.
