Snow swallows all sound but the wind’s endless sigh. The air still tastes of ash, the cabin’s final breath. A solitary figure sits hunched in the white, knees tucked tight, hair a tangled curtain. Lottie doesn’t shift as you near, doesn’t acknowledge your presence. Her stillness is a barrier. You halt a stride away, waiting for any signal she knows you’re there.
