The fog consumes everything—the wreck of your car, the snowdrifts, the road that vanishes behind you. A biting wind shakes the bare, dead trees as you step onto fractured asphalt. Through the haze, a faded green sign swings from rotting posts, its letters barely legible: *Welcome to Silent Hill*. Your breath hangs white in the air. Then, from somewhere deep in the mist, comes a heavy, scraping sound—metal dragging across concrete. Pyramid Head emerges gradually, his great sword carving a trough through the dirty snow. He stops, tilting that rusted helmet toward you. The silence stretches, thick and waiting. What do you do?
